Conceyu Xoven

[1][2] Conceyu Xoven claimed to have had more than 1,500 members and to have been the most important organization in the Leonese Country, having won the University of León elections for students.

[citation needed] The organization defended the self-government of the Spanish provinces of León, Zamora, Salamanca and a so-called "reunification" referendum in territories from other provinces, autonomous communities and countries, as the "Carrión Strip" (Palencia), the Valderaduey valley (Valladolid), El Barco de Ávila-Piedrahita area (Ávila), Valdeorras & Viana (Galicia) and the Portuguese Bragança District.

From the beginning until the end of the organization's activity the General Secretary of Conceyu Xoven was Abel Pardo Fernández.

Members of the organization participated in several municipal elections in the Spanish provinces of León and Zamora within regionalist UPL, and its General Secretary became the councillor for Education, New Technologies and Leonese Culture in León.

[citation needed] Some members of the organization also participated in the lists of the Salamancan People's Union in the province of Salamanca, where they got two town councillors elected.
