Progress towards racial equity in public service

In 2023, the federal government took a significant step towards racial equality by enacting a decree that reserves 30% of vacancies in positions of trust for Black individuals.

This effort was supported by the Movimento Pessoas à Frente, in collaboration with Mahin Consultoria Antirracista, through the formation of an Ethnic-Racial Equity Working Group. Comprising 50 participants from various sectors, the group formulated 27 recommendations aimed at promoting equity and addressing the effects of structural racism in public leadership policies.

“The fight against racism and the promotion of ethnic-racial equity in Brazil is a pressing and universal issue. The measures introduced by the federal government in 2023 represent substantial progress towards a more equitable and inclusive society.”

Jessika Moreira - Executive Secretary, Movimento Pessoas à Frente (People Forward Movement)
