UJSARIO, sometimes written UJSario, Unión de Juventud de Saguia el Hamra y Río de Oro (The Youth Union of Saguia el Hamra and Río de Oro) is the youth organization of the Front Polisario.

It was founded in 1984 through the merger of Unión de Estudiantes Saharauis (Sahrawi Students' Union) and the Polisario youth. It operates from the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf, Algeria, organizing youth and students within the exile community, and promoting the interest of the youth within the Polisario and the Sahrawi republic.

It has extensive international contacts with other youth political or cultural movements, especially in Spain. It is a member of the Arab Youth Union, General Union of Arab Students, the World Federation of Democratic Youth, the International Union of the Socialist Youth and the African Youth Union. It campaigns for a free Western Sahara, and tries to organize international youth exchanges and opportunities for refugee Sahrawis to study abroad.

Its present general secretary is Mohamed Mouloud Mohammed Fadel.
