The Progressive Union for Renewal (French: Union progressiste pour le renouveau, UPR), formerly called Progressive Union, is a political party in Benin, led by Bruno Amoussou. It tends to be more popular in the south of the country.[2]
In the 2019 Beninese parliamentary election, the party came first, winning 47 of 83 seats in the National Assembly.[3] Both the Progressive Union and the only other party in the National Assembly, Republican Bloc, are allied with President Patrice Talon.[3][4] The current Vice President of Benin, Mariam Chabi Talata, is a member.[5] In July 2022, Bruno Amoussou retired and left the presidency of the UP to Joseph Djogbenou.[6] In August 2022, the party merged with the Democratic Renewal Party and changed to its present name.[7]
