The United Coalition Party (Gilbertese: Karikirakean Te I-Kiribati; KTK), also known as the Improving I-Kiribati Welfare Party, was a political party in Kiribati.
The party was established in August 2010 as a merger of the Kiribati Independent Party and Protect the Maneaba.[1] The new party held 12 seats, making it the largest opposition faction. This resulted in its leader Rimeta Beniamina being appointed Leader of the Opposition.[1] However, he later defected to the Maurin Kiribati Party (MKP).[1]
In the 2011 parliamentary elections the party won ten seats. As a result it was able to nominate Tetaua Taitai for the 2012 presidential elections. Taitai finished second with 35% of the vote.
In January 2016 it merged with the MKP to form the Tobwaan Kiribati Party.[2]
