Am Malai Leca (Aciriano: Campionato Unito di Montanaro) is a left wing Montanaro nationalist and regionalist organisation. It operates mainly in the southeastern Montanaro country in southeastern Aciria where majority of the Montanaro people live. After the migration of Montanaros to other parts of Aciria such as Trossera, the influence of the UML extends to the urban areas with major presence of Montanaro immigrants.

While studying at the Imperial University in Trossera, Bastiano Caladri witnessed the rapid development and spread of the Social Renovation Movement, which inspired him to found a similar organization to drive the rights of Montanaros in Aciria. Upon returning to his hometown and the capital of Santa Beatrice, Chegallari, he began the efforts of bringing together educated Montanaros from various clans to create a base for a Montanaro identity and nation with art and literature.

Caladri continued as the leader of the UML until his death in 1971, with him being described as the father of the Montanaro people in his efforts of creating a Montanaro identity that united all Montanaros over identifying with their respective clans. The current leader of the UML is Ugo Acharigi.
