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: This study examines the academic preferences of law students in connection with the ruling of the Constitutional Court on Marco Antonio Caiza Guaita, highlighting its link to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The verdict, seen as a partial victory from the defense's perspective, underscores the importance of safeguarding fundamental rights and addressing shortcomings in the Ecuadorian judicial system. The process's retroaction poses challenges, potentially impacting perceptions of the judiciary's efficiency. Attention to consistency in criminal proceedings reinforces the relevance of SDG 16, promoting a fair and peaceful society. Students' academic preferences may be influenced by the effectiveness and equity of the judicial system, providing educational opportunities to connect real cases with the SDGs, enhancing learning, and fostering commitment to sustainable development principles.
