The UBN was formed on 14 February 2015,[1] based on an association established in 2011 following the 2011 Burkinabé protests.[2] Former Minister of Sport Yacouba Ouédraogo was appointed party president.[1] In the 2015 general elections it received 0.86% of the vote, winning one of the constituency seats (Ag Amlaouna Agali in Oudalan Province).[3]
