Rede Incluir

What Rede Incluir does

Instituto Rede Incluir is a Brazilian nonprofit social organization headquartered in Rio de Janeiro that promotes workplace inclusion for people with disabilities, INSS rehabilitees, women in vulnerable situations, young learners, individuals over 50, and the LGBTQIA+ community. Founded as an informal project in 2016 by former Ministry of Labor auditor Joaquim Travassos and formalized as a nonprofit in 2019 by Antoniel Bastos (President) and Fábio Oliveira (Vice President), the organization has placed more than 10,000 professionals through its flagship Circuito Dia D employment fair, developed in partnership with the Superintendência Regional do Trabalho, Ministério Público do Trabalho, Tribunal Regional do Trabalho, and INSS.

The organization's core offering is a portfolio of programs rather than a unified software product: physical employment fairs (Circuito Dia D, Circuito Rio Empregos, Rio Diversidade), professional qualification programs (Qualificação para Inclusão, Academia Inclusiva, Cozinha Inclusiva, Destrave), corporate inclusion solutions (Recrutar é Incluir, Empresa Legal que Inclui – Emprega – Inspira), a legal support center (NAJI), a DEI-focused communication agency, a web TV media platform (LIDI TV), and a mobile/web candidate-registration and job-matching application called DIVAGA (Diversidade, Inclusão e Vaga), whose first production version launched in 2023.

Rede Incluir's business model combines donation-based funding (PIX, Itaú bank transfers, individual donors), financial support from four named social idealizers (Grupo South, Araújo Abreu, Grupo Tokke, Gruppy CLN), tax-incentive project funding under Brazil's Lei de Incentivo à Cultura, and quote-based corporate consulting for Lei 8213/91 quota compliance, diagnostic assessments, inclusion training, recruitment support, and TAC legal advisory. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The organization employs 1–10 people and operates regionally across Rio de Janeiro and Southeast Brazil.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• CIEE (Centro de Integração Empresa-Escola): Brazil's largest nonprofit focused on youth apprenticeship and trainee placement with corporates. Comparable as a large-scale nonprofit intermediating between candidates and employers, with overlapping employer relationships and corporate-program orientation.
• Fundação Bradesco: Large Brazilian foundation offering free vocational and professional qualification programs targeting underprivileged populations. Comparable as a nonprofit vocational training provider with employer-facing programs, though with a much broader scope and scale.
• Associação de Pais e Amigos dos Excepcionais (APAE): Largest Brazilian civil society network supporting people with intellectual disabilities, with a long history of vocational training and inclusion programs. Comparable as a much larger incumbent operating in the same PwD inclusion space with broader scope.

Others

• InfoJobs: Brazilian online job board and recruitment platform serving a broad employer base. Comparable as a job-matching infrastructure player against which DIVAGA's value proposition must be differentiated for PwD hiring.
• Catho: Major Brazilian online job-matching platform serving employers and job seekers nationwide. Adjacent peer representing the mainstream employment-matching channel that Rede Incluir's DIVAGA platform competes against for candidate-employer connection.

Direct peers

• Instituto Jô Clemente: Brazilian nonprofit dedicated to inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities and other PwD populations through health, education, and employability programs. Highly comparable as a PwD-focused Brazilian social organization with both service delivery and advocacy functions.
• Valor Social: Brazilian social business focused on corporate diversity and inclusion consulting and PwD recruitment. Closely comparable as a fee-based corporate service provider addressing Lei de Cotas compliance and PwD hiring, with overlapping customer base.
• Mais Diferenças: Brazilian NGO focused on inclusion of people with disabilities in education, culture, and the labor market. Directly comparable mission and target population, with similar corporate-engagement and program-based delivery models.

Emerging players

• Specialisterne: Global nonprofit specializing in employment of neurodivergent individuals and people with disabilities, with operations in Brazil. Comparable as a PwD employment specialist using employer partnerships and assessment-based matching, but with a global footprint and stronger tech orientation.

Regional players

• Escola do Trabalho (Senac): Senac's vocational education arm offering technical and trade courses in Brazil. Comparable as a vocational training provider serving disadvantaged populations, with broader geographic coverage but less PwD-specific specialization.
