Tilyenji Kaunda (born 1954) is a Zambian politician who is the President of the United National Independence Party (UNIP). He became party leader in 2001, succeeding Francis Nkhoma. His father, former Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda, was the President of UNIP from 1960 to 2000.

Kaunda stood as a candidate for the office of President of Zambia in the 2001 general election. In 2006, he served as chairman of the short-lived United Democratic Alliance (UDA), which floated Hakainde Hichilema as a coalition candidate for president. Kaunda and the UNIP backed MMD candidate Rupiah Banda for the presidency in the 2008 presidential by-election. Kaunda ran again for president in the 2011 general election but only garnered 0.4% of votes cast.
