The Humanist Party (Spanish: Partido Humanista) is a progressive political party in Argentina and is a member of the Humanist International. The party was founded in 1984 by Luis Alberto Ammann.[2]

Its "five basic points" are:[3]

  1. The human being as a value and central focus
  2. Nonviolence as method of action
  3. The principle of options (economic, organizational, and ideological)
  4. Nondiscrimination
  5. A new kind of economy

The party is currently a member of the Front for Victory.[4]

The party is part of the Frente de Todos coalition supporting the 2019 Argentine presidential candidate Alberto Fernandez during the 2019 Argentine general election.
