The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is a group of 13 political parties that formed in 1989 to oppose the new regime of Omar Hassan al-Bashir after he seized power in a military coup on June 6, 1989. The NDA signed a deal with the Sudanese government on June 18, 2005, following a peace agreement to the Second Sudanese Civil War on January 9, 2005. Some issues have yet to be resolved by opposing factions, including the conflict and humanitarian issues in the war-torn region of Darfur.

The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP).
The Umma Party.
The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement and Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLM/SPLA).
