Ausert or Auserd is a town in Oued-Dahab Laguera province in the Moroccan-controlled part of Western Sahara. The number of permanent structures in Auserd is low, as many residents follow the traditionally nomadic Bedouin lifestyle of the Sahrawis, passing through the town only temporarily and living in tents. The population was 5,832 in 2004.
South of Tindouf, Algeria, there is a Sahrawi refugee camp named after Auserd.
