En Comú Podem (Catalan for In Common We Can) is an electoral coalition formed by Podemos, Barcelona en Comú, Initiative for Catalonia Greens and United and Alternative Left, driven by Mayor of Barcelona Ada Colau and formed in October 2015 to contest the 2015 Spanish general election in Catalonia. For the 2016 general election it ran as En Comú Podem-Guanyem el Canvi (Catalan for In Common We Can-Let's Win Change).
After the negative results of the Catalunya Sí que es Pot alliance in the September Catalan election, Podemos and ICV-EUiA reached an agreement with Barcelona en Comú—Barcelona Mayor Ada Colau's party—to form a joint list to contest the general election in Catalonia. The pact paved the way for the En Comú Podem alliance being created, aiming at mirroring Colau's success in the 2015 Barcelona local election at the Catalonia level; if successful, it was planned to be maintained permanently for future electoral contests.
On 3 May, the Pirate Party of Catalonia voted for joining the alliance ahead of the 2016 general election.
