Diversity metrics have become increasingly important in both Brazilian and American corporate cultures since the 2010s, driven by social movements and regulatory pressures. In Brazil, the term is especially relevant in discussions about racial quotas in universities and workplaces, as well as gender representation. In the USA, diversity metrics are central to corporate diversity and inclusion (D&I) initiatives and legal compliance. The use of these metrics reflects broader societal commitments to addressing systemic inequalities, though their effectiveness and methodology remain subjects of debate.
