In a historic milestone for federal public administration, the Attorney General’s Office (AGU) announced that all six Federal Regional Prosecutors of the Attorney General’s Office (AGU), which comprise the Federal Prosecutor’s Office (PGF), are now led by women.

This unprecedented achievement in the institution’s history represents a significant advancement in the pursuit of gender equity in leadership positions in the Brazilian public service.

The last appointment, which consolidated the achievement, was celebrated with great enthusiasm.

The Federal Prosecutor General, Dr. Adriana Maia Venturini, personally went to Recife (PE) to swear in the new Federal Regional Prosecutor, demonstrating the importance of the moment for the institution.

On this occasion, Dr. Adriana shared her joy over the milestone, highlighting the relevance of the initiative. In her words, the gesture goes beyond rhetoric:

”Today’s swearing-in reinforces that we have effectively sought gender equality, much more than just a speech.”

The Federal Prosecutor General’s statement emphasizes that the advancement in the Attorney General’s Office (AGU) is the result of a conscious and directed effort to promote diversity and ensure that women occupy their rightful space in institutional leadership.

The rise of these professionals is an inspiration for future generations of lawyers and public servants across the country.
