The Rally for Culture and Democracy (French: Rassemblement pour la Culture et la Démocratie, RCD) is a political party in Algeria. It promotes Laïcité and has its principal power base in parts of Kabylie, a Berber region. Some consider it to take the position of a liberal party for the Berber population in Algerian politics.
