The Biodiversity Party (Estonian: Elurikkuse Erakond) was an Estonian green political party, which was founded in September 2018 and one of its leaders was the former Estonian Free Party chief Artur Talvik.[3] They described themselves as post-ideological[4] and their aim was to develop Estonia into a decentralized smart eco-digital country.[5]

On 20 August 2020, the party merged with the Estonian Free Party to form the Estonian Party for the Future.[6]
