Disney Jr. (formerly known as Disney Junior), officially Disney Jr. Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) is a British-managed preschool pay television channel targeting younger viewers aged 2–7, owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company Limited, the international division of The Walt Disney Company serving Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Launched on 1 June 2011 as a replacement for Playhouse Disney outside Africa and headquartered at Hammersmith, West London, it broadcasts in 7 languages and in 4 languages only with subtitles.

It is available through Bulgaria, Greece, Cyprus, Poland, Romania, Turkey with Middle East countries, most of Africa, the Baltics, and the Balkan countries (including Albania).

There is also a separate Western European version, regrouping the French, Dutch-speaking Belgian, Spanish and Portuguese feeds.

Disney Jr. is partially available in the Czech Republic through some satellite services, but does not air through its native language (Czech), unlike the former block on Disney Channel. It was previously available in Hungary between 2015 and 2017 in a Hungarian language track. Since May 2016, it added an Arabic language counterpart for the MENA transmission via OSN. Since April 2022, Disney Jr. is currently the only Disney-branded TV channel in Turkey since Disney Channel closed.

Disney Jr. programs are currently available on Disney+ which launched in South Africa on 18 May 2022, the Middle East and North Africa on 8 June; and Greece, Turkey, and Central and Eastern Europe on 14 June, concluding Europe's release.
