This term is increasingly prominent in both Brazilian and American educational and healthcare systems, reflecting a shift toward inclusive education and personalized medicine. In Brazil, it's particularly associated with special education policies and inclusive schools (escolas inclusivas). In the USA, individualized interventions are mandated for students with IEPs and are central to special education law (IDEA).
