Structure
SLP was led by the General National Congress, which was held every two years. The Congress elected the Central Committee (leading body), the General Control Committee (controlling body), and General Party Court (legal body). The Central Committee elected the Executive Committee, which was the day-to-day executive body. The Control Committee and Party Court were independent of the executive leadership.
SLP had branches and units in 16 major towns. It was relatively strong in Atbara, Almuglad, Kosti, and Kadugli. However, much of the SLP membership was concentrated in the Khartoum region, which is home to a fifth of the country's population.
Nour Tawir Kafi Abu Rass was the President of the party; Tag Al sir Al Atta was the Vice-President. Mudathir Khamees was the last General Secretary of the Party while Zahra Hayder was the Secretary-General of the Party. Adil Abdel Aati was a prominent leader of the SLP and one of its best-known members.

They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.”
