The Party for Democracy in Central Africa (French: Parti pour la Démocratie en Centrafrique, PDCA) is a political party in the Central African Republic.

History

Established on 22 February 2004,[1] the party joined the National Convergence "Kwa Na Kwa" alliance for the 2005 general elections.[2] The alliance won 42 seats, of which the PDCA won eight.[2] Several Kwa Na Kwa factions merged into a single political party in August 2009, but the PDCA remained a separate party.

In 2010 the party joined the Presidential Majority alliance in preparation for the 2011 general elections.[3] The PDCA nominated 40 candidates for the 105 seats in the National Assembly,[4] winning one of the alliance's 11 seats.
