SUMMARY:

The reservation of vacancies for access to the judiciary is a way of materializing the principle of equality in its three facets: formal equality, material equality or redistribution, and equality as recognition. The issue is important for promoting greater pluralism and cultural diversity within the judiciary, thereby contributing to the improved efficiency of delivering justice to the general public. In this context, the issues related to affirmative action policies for racial equity in accessing judicial positions are addressed, particularly through an analysis of Resolution No. 203/2015 of the National Council of Justice. The question arises as to how Resolution No. 203/2015 of the National Council of Justice can contribute to the promotion of racial equity in accessing judicial positions in Brazil. Is there relevance and adequacy in reserving vacancies for individuals of African descent in judiciary exams? In this sense, there is a clear need to promote racial equality in the Brazilian judiciary, given that this career is predominantly composed of white individuals, which can affect impartiality and diversity of perspectives in judicial decisions. The objective is to analyze the instruments of affirmative action policies regarding the implementation of equity within the judiciary in line with the diversity found in the Brazilian population. To achieve this, applied research with a theoretical approach is employed, using logical-deductive methods and a qualitative approach. Additionally, a descriptive objective and bibliographic, documentary, and legislative procedures are presented. It is concluded that although Resolution n. 203/2015 of the National Council of Justice represents an important instrument to promote racial equity in accessing judicial positions in Brazil, its implementation still faces significant challenges. Among the main challenges are the lack of effectiveness in increasing the representation of individuals of African descent in the judiciary, the persistence of deep-rooted prejudices and stereotypes that can affect the impartiality of judicial decisions, and the need to improve monitoring and evaluation mechanisms for affirmative action policies. To overcome these challenges, it is essential to strengthen the enforcement of racial quotas, raise awareness and provide training for judges and judicial personnel regarding the importance of racial equity, and encourage active participation of Afro-descendant communities in the selection and training processes for judges. Additionally, it is crucial to adopt continuous monitoring and evaluation policies to identify potential gaps and implement necessary adjustments to ensure the effectiveness of the measures taken and promote diversity and equal opportunities within the Brazilian judiciary.
