The Social Democratic Party of Kyrgyzstan (SDPK) was a centre-left political party in Kyrgyzstan. The SDPK was one of the oldest and largest political parties in the country. The party took an active part in the Tulip Revolution and the 2010 Revolution. The party's members included three presidents of Kyrgyzstan: Roza Otunbayeva, Almazbek Atambayev and Sooronbay Jeenbekov.
As a result of the 2019–2020 split, the party ceased to exist. The successors of the party were Birimdik (pro-Jeenbekov wing) and the Social Democrats of Kyrgyzstan (pro-Atambayev wing). The latter declare their commitment to the ideas and principles of the SDPK party.
