Icelandic Movement – Living Country (Icelandic: Íslandshreyfingin – lifandi land) was a green political party in Iceland founded by the reporter and environmentalist Ómar Ragnarsson and Sigurlín Margrét Sigurðardóttir in 2007[1] to contest the 2007 parliamentary election. It failed to clear the 5% election threshold and did not enter the Alþingi. At the Social Democratic Alliance's party congress in late March 2009, the Icelandic Movement became part of the SDA.[2]
