Brazil's Party of National Mobilization (Partido da Mobilização Nacional - PMN) is a national-centrist party founded by politicians from the state of Minas Gerais on April 21, 1984, advocating for agrarian reform, termination of debt payments, ending of relations with the IMF and formation of a trade bloc with other South American nations.

Due to some problems with the Brazilian Electoral Court, the PMN's registration was ceased in January 1989. The party re-started on June of the same year. At the last legislative elections, 6 october 2002, the party won 1 out of 513 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and no seats in the Senate. Nowadays, PMN is one of the members of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's coalition.
