Abstract

Abstract: This degree work analyzes and studies the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), from their creation to the formulation of the 17 global objectives proposed by the UN, focusing on SDG No. 6, which addresses access to clean water and sanitation. The relevance of this objective is examined in the context of human rights and environmental sustainability, highlighting its importance in the protection of water resources. Ruling No. 1149-19-JP/20, known as Los Cedros Protective Forest , establishes the relationship between environmental law and the SDGs. The Constitutional Court of Ecuador highlights the precautionary principle, determining that mining activity in the area threatened the integrity of the ecosystem and access to water, fundamental rights that must be guaranteed by the State. The interdependence between the right to water and a healthy environment highlights community participation and prior consultation in environmental decisions. The general objective of this study is the understanding of how law and public policies can contribute to sustainability and environmental equity.
