This paper aims to analyze, in a contemporary view, the Public Defender’s Office role of promotion and protection of human rights, which is constitutionalized by Constitutional Amendment no. 80/2014. In order to do so, it was sought to research the Brazilian Constitutions and identify the birth of the Institution, as well as its functions and the evolution of judiciary assistance to juristic assistance, complemented with the attributions of collective and social order, and the three current theories related to this subject. In addition, an attempt was made to analyze the conception of human rights, its characteristics and dimensions, and thereafter to carry out a study about the promotion of human rights in relation to the idea of recognition of vulnerable groups.
