Democratic Party of Greens – For Animal Rights (Czech: Demokratická strana zelených – Za práva zvířat, DSZ - ZA PRÁVA ZVÍŘAT)[5] is a green political party in the Czech Republic. It was founded on 10 March 2009 as a split from the Green Party, led by two Green MPs, Olga Zubová and Věra Jakubková, who opposed the party's participation in the centre-right government of Mirek Topolánek.
For the 2010 Czech parliamentary election, the party created an alliance with the Head Up – Electoral Bloc, but did not qualify for representation in the Chamber of Deputies. For the 2017 Czech parliamentary election, the party allied with the Party of Common Sense, but again failed to enter parliament. For the 2021 Czech parliamentary election, the party allied with Alliance for the Future, but again failed to get any parliamentary representation.
