DEIB policies have regulated the way companies and educational institutions have implemented their recruitment efforts in order to attract a diverse body of students and workforce. However, in the past few years, there has been a very vocal anti-DEIB movement that argues against the constitutionality of these policies. The article presents arguments both for and against DEIB policies and programs and concludes by stating the need for maintaining these policies, particularly given the socio-economic impact that DEIB policies have.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="pt"><p><![CDATA[Resumo: Neste artigo, o autor explica o significado e o desenvolvimento histórico do DEI (diversidade, equidade e inclusão) e DEIB (diversidade, equidade, inclusão e pertencimento). As políticas do DEIB regulamentaram a forma como as empresas e instituições de ensino implementam os seus esforços de recrutamento, a fim de atrair um corpo diversificado de estudantes e força de trabalho. No entanto, nos últimos anos, tem havido um movimento anti-DEIB muito vocal que argumenta contra a constitucionalidade destas políticas. O artigo apresenta argumentos a favor e contra as políticas e programas do DEIB e conclui afirmando a necessidade de manter essas políticas, especialmente tendo em conta o impacto socioeconômico que as políticas do DEIB têm.]]></p></abstract>
