Sweden Democrat Youth (Sverigedemokratisk Ungdom, SDU) is the youth league of the Swedish political party Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna).
The youth league was initially founded in 1993 as an independent youth league to its parent party. The original name was Sverigedemokraternas Ungdomsförbund, but the organization was fairly quickly renamed to Sverigedemokratisk Ungdom. The youth league was for a time abandoned by the parent party, but was again formed as an independent organization in 1998.
