Innovation and Unity Party (Spanish: Partido Innovación y Unidad, PINU) is a political party in Honduras, established in 1970. PINU was created by Miguel Andonie Fernández as a democratic, moderate left-wing alternative to the two major parties and the military régime.

At Congressional elections held 25 November 2001, PINU won 4 seats in the 128-member assembly. In the presidential contest the same day, Olban Valladares placed third in a five-man field, taking about 1.5 percent of the vote. This was Valladares' third attempt at the presidency, after participating in the 1993 and 1997 elections.

In the legislative elections of 27 November 2005, the party won 2 out of 128 seats in the Congress. Its candidate at the presidential elections, Carlos Sosa Coello won 1.0%.

PINU's candidate in the 2009 presidential election is Bernard Martínez Valerio.[1]
