The research aims to demonstrate how international organizations, more specifically the World Bank, they influence the formulation of inclusive public policies in Brazil. We provide a brief historical contextualization about the importance of inclusive education in Brazil and how it has been crossed by neoliberal politics in the country in the context of structural crisis of capital. This study used bibliographic and documentary research as methodology. We analyze the statements resulting from the Jomtien (Economic and Social Council of the United Nations [UNESCO], 1990), Human Rights (1993), Salamanca (Economic and Social Council of the United Nations [UNESCO], 1994), Guatemala (The United Nations [UN], 1999), de Brasilia (Brazil, 2008) and Incheon (Economic and Social Council of the United Nations [UNESCO], 2015) Conferences. In the context of public policies in Brazil, we bring the Federal Constitution (Brazil, 1988), the Law of Directives and Basis for National Education [LDB] 9394/96 (Brazil, 1996) and the National Education Plan (2014). The materiality has shown us, in the results and discussions, those public policies for inclusive education follow the determinations of the Movement Education for All (EFA). From 1984 onwards, the World Bank began to lead the educational policy portfolio, which was previously the responsibility of UNESCO, treating education no longer as just a social right, but above all, as an interesting commodity with a high potential for generating profits. Therefore, loans made in the educational area were tied to conditionalities that depended on a series of negotiations that resulted in financial and managerial clauses and the establishment of educational guidelines, as indicated by research by Fonseca (2000). We conclude that, despite the existence of several laws regulating the inclusion of people with disabilities in the most diverse spaces of society, these laws are still not, in fact, fully implemented and that socioeconomic issues play an important role in terms of the best development possibilities for people with disabilities.
