Daudi Cwa II (1896-1939) was the king (kabaka) of Buganda from 1897 to 1939.

On 14 August 1897, he succeeded Mwanga II as king of Buganda, a state in East-Africa, which is now part of Uganda. A reformist, he initiated several significant changes in his kingdom, including a process of democratization. After his death in 1939, he was succeeded by his son, Mutesa II, who went on to become the first president of Uganda.

Daudi Cwa was baptized as a Protestant.
