The study seeks to investigate the themes that appear in basic schools´ curriculum in Sudan. By studying the themes and representations, the research aims to investigate the degree to which the curriculum fosters tolerance, social cohesion, and peaceful coexistence or perpetuates violence and division. Ultimately, the research attempts to investigate the role of the education system in promoting tolerance and peaceful coexistence between different ethnic groups in Sudan. For this purpose, the research employed two methodological approaches: thematic analysis of textbooks and qualitative interviews. Recommended textbooks that are officially approved by the Ministry of Education, as the primary source of data, were analyzed.
