Workers Revolutionary Party of Colombia (Spanish: Partido Revolucionario de los Trabajadores de Colombia) was a political party in Colombia. The party was founded in 1982. It emerged from the 'Majority' faction of the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Tendency, a group that had broken away from the Communist Party of Colombia (Marxist-Leninist) in the mid-1970s.
PRT launched armed struggle against government forces. According to official sources, when the PRT militias were demobilized in 1991 the party had around 200 fighters.
Apart from its armed struggle PRT maintained an open mass front, the trade union organization Corriente de Integración Sindical.
