In present-day Spain a mancomunidad (English: municipal association[note 1]) is an association of municipalities voluntarily established by some municipalities with the aim of carrying out joint projects or providing common services.[1][2]
A mancomunidad is one of the local entities[3] defined for the purpose of local government, to which those municipalities may voluntarily delegate some of their functions and powers. There were 1,023 mancommunidades in 2011.[4]
