Dobrivoje Tošković (Serbian Cyrillic: Добривоје Тошковић; 1927 – 25 January 2021) was a Serbian and Yugoslav architect, urban planner, and university professor. His work, particularly in the context of the Non-Aligned Movement, represented a distinct "third way" in urban planning, grounded in humanism and cultural sensitivity.
Considered an "ambassador without a decree," he left a profound mark through his projects in India, Tanzania, and Libya, as well as through the creation of urban plans for numerous cities in Serbia. His life's work is the master plan for the city of Bidhannagar (New Kolkata) in India. He was a full member of the Academy of Engineering Sciences of Serbia.
