The New Democracy Party (Lithuanian: Naujosios demokratijos partija, NDP) was a political party in Lithuania.

History

The party was originally named the Lithuanian Women's Party (Lietuvos moterų partija) and first ran in the 1996 parliamentary elections. It received 3.7% of the vote and won a single seat.

Prior to the 2000 elections, the party was renamed the New Democracy Party. It contested the elections as part of the Social-Democratic Coalition of Algirdas Brazauskas. The coalition won 51 seats, three of which were taken by the NDP.

In 2001, the party merged with the Lithuanian Peasants Party to form the Union of Peasants and New Democracy Parties.
