description There is a critical need for comprehensive governance reform in Sudan, a nation navigating the turbulent shift from decades of authoritarian rule to a fragile post-conflict democracy. Through an in-depth analysis, the study examines Sudan's enduring governance challenges—corruption, ethnic tensions, and economic mismanagement—while highlighting the unique opportunities for structural reforms, such as constitutional reconfiguration, decentralization, anti-corruption initiatives, and strengthened regional collaboration. Drawing on secondary data from academic research, policy reports, and analyses by international organizations, the study underscores the transformative potential of Sudan’s key stakeholders, including government institutions, civil society, international allies, and regional neighbors. Findings reveal that their collective involvement is vital to establishing a foundation for long-term peace and stability. This article concludes with actionable recommendations aimed at fostering a governance system that is transparent, inclusive, and accountable—an aspiration that hinges on the sustained engagement and collaboration of these pivotal actors in Sudan's journey toward a democratic future.
