Abstract

This paper discusses propositions for productive inclusion and work and income generation coming from Brazil’s social assistance policy through the Unified Social Assistance System. It presents briefly the history of the construction of this social policy in Brazil, as well as its contemporary guidelines to meet the social-economic vulnerabilities of those in poverty situation. Some methodological alternatives to guide the currently adopted work and income generation actions are discussed, proposing to meet the basic needs of the social assistance policy users and to contribute to the subject’s autonomy.
