Solidara (Esperanto for "solidary") was a political party in the Netherlands, founded by former Socialist Party member of the Senate, Düzgün Yildirim. Yildirim was elected to the Senate after a voting mistake, but refused to give up his seat, after which the SP terminated his party membership. Yildirim kept his seat in the senate as an independent and founded Solidara.

Although Solidara never managed to elect members on its own, it did have some members of local and provincial councils who switched party affiliation from SP to Solidara after the split.

On 3 May, the general member assembly decided to dissolve the party, as there were too few active members to form a new executive board.[1]
