"expresiones organizadas"
El trabajo con la comunidad cuenta con el respaldo de expresiones organizadas como los Consejos del Poder Ciudadano, Movimiento Comunal, Sindicatos de Trabajadores así como mujeres y niñas, niños y adolescentes organizadas.
I realise this expression has a different meaning than it's direct translation. Most instances I can find on the net are in South American Spanish and usually address socio-political themes.
Could a native speaker, preferably South American clear this up for me? TIA.
What it does not translate as is: "organised expressions".
The key here is the use of "expression" It seems to imply some form of political protest or agitation. Thanks

I would still wait a bit for a native speaker to weigh in on this: What I found for translation in a search are these; 1) special interest groups 2) community activities 3) organized activities 4) organised expressions -- Is also used in English reference Linguee.com
I'd understand it in a broader sense, seein gthat it has a clear context, as "expressions" of people's will as an organised entity, or enitites, like workers organising in a union, or citizens with common goals organising in assembly.
Just a guess ... Organized forces?
I used "interest groups" Thanks to all.
