Abstract

Abstract: Sustainable Development Goal 16 (SDG16) seeks to promote just societies, peaceful and inclusive, and ensure access to justice for all, reduce corruption and bribery, and create accountable and transparent institutions. It also seeks to end all forms of violence and organized crime, promote respect for human rights, strengthen the participation of developing countries in decision-making and promote laws and policies in favor of sustainable development. The violence, the insecurity, weak institutions and limited access to justice is a threat to sustainable development. Judgment No. 13-18-CN/21 was issued by the Court Constitutional of Ecuador in December 2021; the sentence declared the constitutionality additive to Art. 175 numeral 5 of the COIP, which prescribed that, for purposes of determining the existence of sexual crimes against adolescents, consent is irrelevant. The sentence has generated controversy in conservative forums due to the possible lack of protection of the rights of sexuality of minors between 14 and 18 years of age; the sentence establishes that the evaluation of consent can only be carried out if the act sexuality occurs among adolescents 14 years of age or older; the ruling does not decriminalize sexual relations between adolescents and adults, is not intended to determine a age from which adolescents would be allowed to have relationships does not legalize pedophilia, does not promote the sexual promiscuity of adolescents, and does not seek to decriminalize abortion for rape.
