The Union for Democratic Renewal (Union pour le renouveau démocratique) is a political party in Senegal. It was founded by Djibo Leyti Kâ, a former minister under President Abdou Diouf who broke with the then-ruling Socialist Party, in 1998.

In the April 2001 parliamentary election, URD won 3.67% of the popular vote and three out of 120 seats in the National Assembly.[1] It joined the government under President Abdoulaye Wade in April 2004.[2] It participated in the parliamentary election of 3 June 2007 as part of the Sopi Coalition.
