The Galician National-Popular Assembly (AN-PG, Asemblea Nacional-Popular Galega in Galician language) was suprapartisan umbrella organization established in 1975 created to coordinate various political fronts of the left-wing Galician nationalist movement.

The principles of the AN-PG were self-determination, self-government, anti-colonialism, democracy and the promoting the creation of Galician political forces and had as it main objective the formation of a Galician provisional government after getting power. The AN-PG used the estreleira as its flag and organized protests on July 25, considered as "Día Nacional de Galicia" or the "Day of the Galician Fatherland".

The AN-PG held its first plenary in April 1976, which resulted in the split of a sector that considered the AN-PG excessively linked to the Galician People's Union (UPG). This sector was the Galician People's Assembly. In the III Plenary held in October 1977 the AN-PG approved its statutes, in which the organization was defined as "interclassist, nonpartisan organization directed by a collegiate secretary," in which Lois Diéguez served as spokesman. After the municipal elections of 1979, the AN-PG was restructured to promote greater coordination among its counselors, creating local assemblies.
