The Popular Congress Party (PCP, Arabic: حزب المؤتمر الشعبي) is a Islamist political party in Sudan. The party was founded by Hassan al-Turabi.[1]

The party emerged from a split within the ruling National Congress Party (NCP) in 1999, due to differences between Turabi and President Omar al-Bashir.[1] The party is one of the most outspoken against the NCP, advocating a popular uprising to overthrow the government.[2] The party relies heavily on displaced Western Sudanese living in Khartoum's shanty towns for support.[1]

The party is a member of the National Consensus Forces opposition alliance.[3]
