The Central African Democratic Union (French: Union Démocratique Centrafricaine, UDC) was a political party in the Central African Republic.

History

The UDC was established by David Dacko in March 1980 at a congress. Dacko claimed that the UDC was the continuation of Movement for the Social Evolution of Black Africa (MESAN). The party was banned on 2 September 1981, following the 1981 Central African Republic coup d'état.
