The Katipunan ng Nagkakaisang Pilipino (KNP or KANP, lit. 'Society of United Filipinos') is a political party in the Philippines. The party was founded in June 19, 2020 by Kerby Salazar, a provincial board member from Cavite, to be a platform for youth empowerment in the national government.[1]
In October 2021, KANP welcomed lawyer Chel Diokno as its party member and senatorial candidate for the upcoming 2022 Philippine general elections. The party also adopted presidential aspirant Vice President Leni Robredo, vice presidential aspirant Senator Kiko Pangilinan, and senatorial aspirant and former Congressman Teddy Baguilat as their national candidates.[2]
