In recent years, the human and sustainable development approach has been embraced by public policy agendas at all territorial scales in Brazil. In a global and national context with various systemic crises imposing constant challenges on development agendas, the UDH has not only updated the Atlas of Human Development in Brazil but has also provided a new set of indicators capable of dialoguing with the challenges of the 21st century.

Several partners, both national and global, are key to the project of expanding the ADH, in order to better develop the parameters that guide the trajectory of development agendas, such as IPEA and the João Pinheiro Foundation. The challenges need to deal with the problems of poverty, hunger, the environment, the 21st-century world of work, and all forms of inequality (horizontal and vertical), among others. In order to formulate responsive public policies that promote the advancement of the 2030 Agenda and boost the goals of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), the UDH strives to make available to public and private agents a set of indicators that promote the debate on development in the 21st century.

Faced with these challenges and the blossoming of new visions for the future, it has proved essential to update and incorporate into the ADH the new databases from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), following the unveiling of the 2022 Demographic Census. Publishing the results of the 2022 Demographic Census in the ADH – by updating and expanding its databases – will provide users with the broadest and most recent data picture of the nation at the start of the 21st century.  The broadening of horizons through precise reading, on territorial scales only allowed by the Demographic Census and in tune with all the advances of the digital age, is an opportunity to make available the most up-to-date set of data in line with the parameters of human and sustainable development.

Under the supervision of the Coordinator of the Human Development Unit, the Project Analyst will contribute to activities on the themes of human and sustainable development, the implementation, monitoring, and evaluation processes of the project, the National, Regional, and Global HDRs, and the Atlas of Human Development in Brazil, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals. The Project Analyst will also carry out other activities related to the human development thematic agendas as directed by the Coordination Office.
