Penolak berdasarkan hati nurani (bahasa Inggris: conscientious objector) adalah "orang yang mengklaim hak untuk menolak melakukan tugas militer" atas dasar kebebasan pemikiran,
hati nurani, atau agama.
Di beberapa negara,
Penolak berdasarkan hati nurani ditugaskan pada tugas sipil alternatif sebagai pengganti tugas militer atau wajib militer. Beberapa
Penolak berdasarkan hati nurani menganggap diri mereka sendiri sebagai pasifis, non-intervensionis, non-resistan, non-agresionis, anti-imperialis, antimiliteris atau tak bernegara secara filsafat (tak meyakini pengecapan negara).
Pada 8 Maret 1995, resolusi Komisi Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa untuk Hak Asasi Manusia 1995/83 menyatakan bahwa "orang-orang yang memegang tugas militer tak seharusnya dikecualikan dari hak memiliki penolakan
berdasarkan hati nurani terhadap tugas militer".
