The Democratic Convergence Party-Reflection Group (PCD-GR) or Partido de Convergencia Democratica - Grupo de Reflexão, in Portuguese, is one of the main political parties in São Tomé and Príncipe.
It was founded on 4 November 1990 by MLSTP dissidents, independents, and young professionals.
The party won the 1991 parliamentary election and was the ruling party from 1991 to 1994. Since 1994 its power has declined, and it has maintained coalitions with other parties, first the MLSTP and then the Forces for Change Coalition of current President Fradique de Menezes. The party is known as a conservative party. It was led for several years by Alda Bandeira.
