The Party of Greens of Ukraine (Ukrainian: Партія зелених України, romanizedPartiia zelenykh Ukrayiny, PZU) is a Ukrainian green political party founded in 1990[4] by Yuriy Shcherbak and registered in May 1991.[5]

The party is a successor of the Green World Association (founded December 1987[6]) and under that name participated in the Ukrainian parliamentary elections of 1990 as part of the Democratic Bloc.[4] The Green World Association quickly transformed itself into the Party of Greens of Ukraine.

After being electorally successful in the late 20th century, the party became nationally electorally marginal but representatives of the party are present in regional and local governing bodies.[7]
