Svente Parish (Latvian: Sventes pagasts) is an administrative unit of Augšdaugava Municipality in the Selonia region of Latvia. In 2011, the Polish-speaking minority formed the largest ethnic group in the parish, but by 2020 the proportion of ethnic Poles had fallen to 29 percent, slightly below that of ethnic Latvians.[3] Russians form the third largest ethnic group, and, as of 2021, Russian is the most widely spoken language in the parish.
