Europees Unitair Links/Noords Groen Links is een linkse tot extreemlinkse fractie in het Europees Parlement en bestaat hoofdzakelijk uit partijen met een socialistische of (soms voormalige) communistische achtergrond. Voorbeelden hiervan zijn de Duitse partij Die Linke, de Griekse en Tsjechische communisten.
GUE/NGL telt 37 leden afkomstig uit 13 lidstaten. Hiermee is het de kleinste fractie in het huidige Europees Parlement. GUE/NGL haalde haar beste resultaat in 2014, toen zij 52 zetels behaalde. In tegenstelling tot enkele andere fracties heeft GUE/NGL geen partijorganisatie.
