The Ecological Movement of Uzbekistan (Uzbek: O`zbekiston ekologik hаrаkаti; Russian: Экологическое Движение Узбекистана) is a political party and environmental movement in Uzbekistan. It was founded on 2 August 2008, and registered as a political party with the Ministry of Justice the following 20 September.

Fifteen of the 150 seats in the Legislative Chamber of Uzbekistan (the lower chamber of the Oliy Majlis) are reserved for the Ecological Movement of Uzbekistan under the revised electoral law of 2008. The movement elected its legislators at a congress held in conjunction with the general election of 27 December 2009. One legislator was elected from each territorial subdivision of Uzbekistan (Republic of Karakalpakstan, provinces and Tashkent city) plus one member from the Executive Committee of the Central Council of the Ecological Movement. Delegates to the congress were elected in equal numbers at the conferences of each of the territorial branches of the Ecological Movement.
