Dias entered the federal social-development ministry in January 2023 after a long political career that included multiple terms as governor of Piauí and service in the Senate. (Source: Brazilian Ministry of Development and Social Assistance — accessed 2026-10-14 (opens in a new tab).)
On taking office he identified redesign of Bolsa Família, updating the CadÚnico registry and combating hunger as central priorities. (Source: Brazilian Ministry of Development and Social Assistance — 2023-01-02 (opens in a new tab).)
The ministry framed Dias's early agenda around rebuilding income-support administration and identifying households accurately through the national social registry.
In 2024 Dias promoted Brazil's effort to build a Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty during its G20 presidency. (Source: Reuters — 2024-07-12 (opens in a new tab).)

The international alliance extended Brazil's anti-hunger agenda from domestic social policy into multilateral coordination.
