The National Consensus Forces (NCF, Ij’maa) is a coalition of political parties in Sudan that opposed the rule of the National Congress Party, and was initially formed to stand against the NCP in the 2010 Sudanese elections. Farouk Abu Issa served as chairman from 2005 until his death in 2020.
It is part of the FFC (Forces for Freedom and Change), a wide coalition, which sought to overthrow Omar al-Bashir and to negotiate the democratic transition with the military after he was deposed.
In a recent statement, the coalition called for the end of bombing campaigns against civilians in the Darfur, Blue Nile, and South Kordofan states, organized by pro-government forces. They also called on the UN and the African Union to protect civilians and internally displaced persons in the area.
