Gabonese Union for Democracy and Development

The Gabonese Union for Democracy and Development (UGDD) is an political party in Gabon. It was formed in 2005 by Zacharie Myboto, a former member of the ruling Gabonese Democratic Party (PDG).

Myboto ran as an independent candidate (because the UGDD was not legalized prior to the election) in presidential elections held on 27 November 2005, he finished third out of five candidates, winning 6.58% of the vote.

In the 17 December/24 December 2006 National Assembly of Gabon election the party won 4 out of 120 seats.
