Peace and Democracy Movement

The Peace and Democracy Movement ("Barış ve Demokrasi Hareketi") was a social democratic political party in the de facto Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. In the last legislative elections for the House of Representatives of Northern Cyprus - 20 January 2005 - the party won 5.8 % of the popular vote and 1 out of the 50 seats in the assembly. The leftist current was very strong.

The last leader of BDH was Mustafa Akinci, a deputy in TRNC Assembly of the Republic. In May 2007, it merged with the Communal Liberation Party to form the Communal Democracy Party.
