The Drew Pavlou Democratic Alliance (DPDA), also known as simply the Democratic Alliance, was an Australian political party founded in 2021. The party was registered with the Australian Electoral Commission on 28 February 2022.

The party's policies included promoting a pro-Taiwan foreign policy, protecting human rights, establishing a federal anti-corruption agency, building a green economy, and supporting workplace democracy.

The DPDA ran in the 2022 Australian federal election but failed to win a seat. The party's candidates received 2,215 first preference votes for the House of Representatives nationally, 4,555 first preference votes for the Senate in Queensland (representing 0.15% of total votes cast) and 1,011 first preference votes for the Senate in South Australia (representing 0.09% of total votes cast).
