In Brazil, 'inclusão estrutural' is increasingly prominent in policy discussions regarding social inequality, particularly concerning Afro-Brazilian populations, people with disabilities, and economically disadvantaged communities. The term reflects a shift from charity-based inclusion models to systemic, rights-based approaches. In the USA, the concept is closely tied to Civil Rights discourse, affirmative action, and universal design principles. Both contexts emphasize that true inclusion requires fundamental changes to institutions rather than token accommodations.
