- The Highlands and Islands Alliance or Càirdeas was a minor Scottish electoral alliance that was active in the late 1990s. Founded in the autumn of 1998 by non-partisan politicians local to the Highlands and Islands, it only contested the inaugural Scottish Parliament election of 1999, where it collected a negligible 1.3% of the regional vote and despite a reasonably publicised campaign, failed to elect any of its candidates. Led by anti-nuclear activist Lorraine Mann, the Alliance was established to better represent marginalised communities in rural Scotland, who they felt had been ignored by government in favour of those in the more densely populated Central Belt. Its policies were near exclusively centred on localism and rural issues, only contesting Scotland's regional additional member system so that electors could vote on nationwide matters through their constituency ballot. After the election, the group remained politically inactive until it was quietly disestablished in August 2004. Although electorally unimportant, the Alliance's legal campaign to allow political job sharing in the Scottish Parliament attracted considerable media and academic coverage. The dispute has since become the subject of legislative research by both the Northern Ireland Assembly and the British House of Commons, where it informed debate surrounding the Sex Discrimination (Election Candidates) Act 2002.

- A Aliança das Terras Altas e Ilhas (em inglês: Highlands and Islands Alliance; em gaélico escocês: Càirdeas, significando "amizade", "boa vontade" ou "aliança") foi um partido político criado para concorrer às primeiras eleições para o Parlamento Escocês. Concorreram apenas ao círculo eleitoral Highlands and Islands, mas não tiveram sucesso, tendo tido apenas 1,29% dos votos nesse círculo (0,1% no total do eleitorado escocês). (pt)
