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 analyzes Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16, which seeks to promote peace, justice and institutional strengthening, considered essential for the achievement of the other SDGs. The literature highlights that ensuring the implementation of SDG 16 is crucial as it facilitates the achievement of all sustainable development goals. To achieve this, it is necessary to have solid and impartial institutions that promote transparency, accountability and the fight against corruption, ensuring appropriate use of resources. A relevant example is the ruling No. 2957-17-EP/22 issued by the Constitutional Court of Ecuador on November 16, 2022, in which the accusations of alleged violation of the right to defense, guarantee of motivation and lack of of adherence to the principle of congruence in the criminal field with respect to the first instance sentence. This case illustrates the importance of a strong and transparent judicial system. Strengthening the implementation of SDG 16 is vital to ensure the success of the SDGs as a whole, underscoring the need for robust and fair institutions.
