Preferencias académicas de los estudiantes de la Carrera de Derecho y su vinculación con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) a través del estudio de sentencias

Abstract

Abstract: The present work addresses the preferences of law students regarding the Sustainable Development Goals, with a specific focus on goal 16. It also underscores the significance of competencies acquired in preferred subjects, with Human Rights as the central theme, leading to the analysis of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights judgment concerning the forced disappearance of César Gustavo Garzón Guzmán in Ecuador. The methodology, characterized as theoretical-deductive, employs methods such as analysis and synthesis, exegesis, and exploratory research. The study concludes that, despite concerted efforts, goal 16 encounters challenges exacerbated by the pandemic and international conflicts. While Ecuador is not directly affected by wars, setbacks arise from economic and political instability, hindering the achievement of an equitable society. The protection of rights under goal 16, supported by regulations, faces hindrance due to corruption and a lack of political will.
