TEAM Unity (acronym of Together Everybody Achieves More) was an electoral alliance in the Philippines that contested the 2007 Philippine general election. Its candidates were supporters of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and her administration. The alliance sought to win several Senate and House seats to protect Arroyo from impeachment attempts. Politicians who opposed the Arroyo administration formed their own electoral alliance, Genuine Opposition (GO), to challenge TEAM Unity.
