The Aruban People's Party (AVP; Dutch: Arubaanse Volkspartij, Papiamento: Partido di Pueblo Arubano) is a Christian-democratic political party in Aruba. The AVP was founded by Henny Eman in 1942, and the party sought autonomy for Aruba from the Netherlands Antilles.
Every government in Aruban history since 1985 has been formed by either the AVP or People's Electoral Movement. After the 2024 election the AVP currently leads a coalition with FUTURO.
