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 sentencia

Abstract

Abstract: This curricular integration project examines Judgment 1438-20-JP/23, issued by the Constitutional Court of Ecuador on November 9, 2023, framed within the action for protection filed by Colombian scholars of the "Colombia-Ecuador Reciprocity" program. The judgment concluded that SENESCYT violated the right to education, particularly its element of permanence, by imposing unreasonable requirements not provided for by law and delaying the disbursement of funds intended for scholars' maintenance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, it affected fundamental rights such as the right to a dignified life, including its components of health, food, and housing. The analysis highlights how the Constitutional Court, by accepting the action for protection, adopted comprehensive reparative measures, including public apologies, dissemination of the judgment, and a compensation amount. Furthermore, the decision is contextualized within the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal No. 4 (SDG 4), which promotes inclusive, equitable, and quality education. This study underscores the importance of constitutional law as a tool for ensuring the effective protection of fundamental rights, especially in contexts of vulnerability.
