Female Civil Servants and Mothers: Care That Is Also a Public Service
The Public Ethics Commission (CEP) of the Brazilian Federal Executive Branch issued Bulletin No. 94 (May 2026) to outline ethical governance initiatives, including a public consultation on draft ethical investigation resolutions, new management and investigation training courses, and a practical manual for electronic petitioning in ethical processes. The bulletin highlights inter-agency integration between the Ministry of Health’s ethics and oversight bodies, announces the second episode of the “Ethics in Network” podcast, and provides an answer key for the April “Ethics in Play” quiz. It further features a thematic reflection on mother civil servants, emphasizing care as a public value, and invites sectoral ethics commissions to update their registrations and submit content for future editions.
