Abstract

Abstract: This research analyzes the academic preferences of Law students at the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja (UTPL) and their connection to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth. The study is conducted through the analysis of Constitutional Court Ruling No. 1234-16-EP/21, which declared a violation of the right to due process and the guarantee of motivation by the Sole Chamber of the Provincial Court of Justice of Sucumbíos. Furthermore, the ruling addressed the breach of special protection for pregnant women in the effective exercise of their right to work. The research follows a theoretical-deductive and socio-legal orientation, applying systematic, analytical, synthetic, and exegetical methods. The main objective is to identify the factors that influence students choice of legal specialization areas and how these preferences align with the promotion and defense of the SDGs in their future professional practice.
