The name UNEN is an acronym of "Unión y Encuentro" (Spanish: Unity and meeting).

Founded in April 2014, the purpose of the coalition was to unite the parties that oppose Peronism and Kirchnerism in a single entity, but the inclusion of the center-right party Republican Proposal was a controversial topic among the parties.
