The African Development Movement (French: Mouvement Africain de Développement, MAD) was a political party in Gabon led by Pierre Claver Zeng Ebome.

MAD contested the 2001 parliamentary elections to win Zeng Ebome a seat in the National Assembly. He retained it in the 2006 elections, wherein MAD was part of a bloc supporting the ruling Gabonese Democratic Party.[1] He lost it in the 2011 elections.

MAD held its Fourth Congress on 10 February 2008, reaffirming its participation in the Presidential Majority and reelecting Zeng Ebome as its president.[2] In 2010 it was one of several parties merged into the National Union.[3]
