Abstract
The objective of this work is to analyze empowerment based on gender and racial equality in Brazilian society. We have performed documental and quantitative research using data extracted from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, Center of Educational, Cultural and Community Action Studies and Research and Union Socioeconomic Statistics and Studies Department databases. The data indicates that girls present greater age-grade distortion than boys, and the black population is at a disadvantage compared to the white population in higher education from ages 18 to 24. Black women are at a disadvantage in relation to black men, as white women are with white men in terms of inclusion in the Brazilian workforce and average salaries. In addition, they are under-represented in managerial positions, and there is a disadvantage in terms of gender in every state in Brazil. Black women suffer the most social inequality in the workforce. This study considers the criterion of race, because black people make up more than half of the Brazilian population. The female and racial geography, it points out that social and racial inequality is a compromising factor for achieving the goal of the 2030 Agenda.
