Purpose: This paper will formulate the required poverty eradication strategy with the required pro-poor and social protection policies and other needed procedures to contribute to Sudan’s post-war recovery.
Design/methodology/approach: The paper uses quantitative and qualitative analysis to conceptualise all required policies, strategies and approaches that will create the needed synergies between the pro-poor, social protection policies and economic opportunities. The analysis is based on evaluating technical processes and services together with an intensive literature review from earlier published papers.
Findings: The analysis process led to identifying the science, technology and innovation (STI) policies for the development of smart cities all across Sudan; certain governance policies towards an efficient and just new civil service; strategic management policies to link all economic sectors instead of acting in separate silos; and the required natural resources management policies for better productive synergies across Sudan.
Value: The paper draws a clear path towards building peace in the minds of all men and women, while increasing their nationalism and ensuring their dignity and prosperity in post-war Sudan.
Research limitations/implications: The study dwells on the available limited data; future work could be expanded when more data are available.
Practical implications: The paper could easily be part of a serious programme for an elected technocrat government.
