Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Development/For! (Latvian: Attīstībai/Par!, AP!) is a liberal political alliance in Latvia.[2][3] It was formed in 2018 and it is made up of Movement For!, For Latvia's Development and Izaugsme.[4]

The coalition itself has embraced a centrist position,[3][5] and it expresses socially liberal,[6][7][8] and classical liberal views.[9] It is orientated towards pro-Europeanism, and it states "a modern and just Latvia within a united Europe" as its main goal.[10] The two main components of the alliance, For Latvia's Development and Movement For!, are both member parties of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party. The alliance is led by its two co-chairmen, Daniels Pavļuts, member of Saeima and the leader of Movement For! and Juris Pūce, Minister for Environmental Protection and Regional Development and the leader of Latvian Development.

In the 2018 parliamentary election it placed fourth by winning 13 seats in Saeima.[11] In the 2019 European Parliament election, the alliance received one of the eight seats allocated to Latvia, with the frontrunner of the list, political scientist Ivars Ijabs being elected. Ijabs was at that time not a member of any of the parties making up the alliance, although he announced that he would represent the European ALDE party.[12] Ijabs as well as deputy prime minister and defence minister Artis Pabriks joined For Latvia's Development in October 2019.

In the 2020 Riga City Council snap election, the alliance ran on a common list with the social-democratic party The Progressives, which won the election with 26 percent of the vote and received 18 seats, seven of which were won by AP! candidates from all parties except Growth.
