National Council for Resistance (Conseil National de la Résistance, or CNR), French clandestine organization formed in Paris on 15 May 1943, by the Free French representative
Jean Moulin, whose task it was to create a co-ordinated resistance movement in occupied France. Its sixteen members, plus Moulin, represented all major resistance groups and political parties; eight were from the resistance and six from different political parties active within the resistance, including one from the French Communist Party, and two from the trade unions. The work of co-ordination was carried out by a three-man executive. After Moulin's death in July 1943
Georges Bidault was elected chairman. The CNR worked with the Forces Françaises de l'Intérieur (see
FFI) when they were formed in February 1944.
