January 1, 1956 marks 67years since Sudan achieved its independence. On this day, we remember the sacrifices of those men & women who fought for Sudan’s freedom and the progress that has been made since then.
We also recognize the need to continue to strive for a more just and prosperous Sudan and to work together to ensure a brighter future for all Sudanese people.
Sudan is a rich biodiversity where the conservation is required to preserve the nature and its resources by recognizing the need to protect ecosystems and the resources for future generations as the human activities are causing a degradation of the environment, such as pollution, climate change, and habitat destruction. It also promotes the use of renewable energy sources and sustainable practices, such as recycling.

In order to promote economic growth in Sudan, it’s important to create a culture of accountability among all stakeholders, particularly new businesses and rising companies. This can be done by providing them with information and guidance on which sectors offer the most potential for investment.
Government organizations, educational institutions and financial institutions can play an important role in this by providing resources and data on potential investment areas.
Additionally, it is important to create a supportive and enabling environment for businesses to thrive, with legislations and regulations with incentives that encourage investment and development.
Sustainable agriculture is one the most suitable program that Sudan can immediately implement it as it’s integrates three main goals: environmental health, economic profitability, and social and economic equity where involves farmers and other stakeholders in decision-making and encourages them to take a holistic approach to farming. This approach emphasizes the importance of taking into consideration both short-term and long-term consequences of farming decisions.
The Gezira Scheme is an example of a successful large-scale irrigation project, and its success has led to the implementation of similar projects in many other countries , Now it’s the time to stand for Gezira Scheme and other important projects in Sudan.
Climate change in Sudan is already having a major impact on the environment, economy, and public health. It is likely to cause more extreme natural disasters, reduced crop yields, and increased water scarcity in Sudan, To mitigate climate change, Sudan must move away from fossil fuels and towards renewable energy sources, reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, and invest in climate adaptation measures.
Solar energy & Wind energy are the most popular to generate electricity or heat and its important be part of energy mix in the country as renewable energy sources are often more cost-effective than traditional sources of energy, making them an attractive option for many countries.
Other measures that can be taken include the development of policies and regulations to ensure water is used efficiently, the protection of wetlands that serve as natural water sources, and the promotion of public awareness campaigns to encourage individuals to conserve water by implementation of water-harvesting systems, such as rainwater harvesting, can help capture and store water for use in times of drought or shortage.
Air in Sudan is often thick with dust and smoke from burning wood, charcoal, and fossil fuels. The air is also polluted with high levels of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and other pollutants from vehicle exhaust and industrial emissions and it’s been linked to an increase in respiratory illnesses, such as asthma and bronchitis, in the country.
Waste management in Sudan is an emerging sector, with a variety of challenges. The country faces a lack of infrastructure and resources to effectively manage waste, and as such, the majority of waste is disposed of in an unsafe and unsanitary manner. This has led to increased levels of air, water, and soil pollution.
Sudan’s rich biodiversity is threatened by human activities, therefore recycling and green building should be in first priority of the government to let people learn how to reduce the amount of waste they produce and recycle it in an eco-friendly manner .
it is important to remember that government can do these actions better if it’s supported by community engagement and ownership of it’s initiatives. “and there is no nomination in the ownership it’s internal motive“
