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 research analyzes the academic preferences of Law students at the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja (UTPL) and their connection with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 5: Gender Equality, through the analysis of a relevant constitutional ruling. The study combines doctrinal, normative, and jurisprudential legal analysis with data obtained from informational forms applied to upper-level students. Through the examination of Ruling No. 1894-10-JP/20, issued by the Constitutional Court of Ecuador, it becomes evident that pregnancy was considered a disciplinary offense within a military institution, leading to the violation of fundamental rights such as equality, education, and reproductive freedom. From a Human Rights perspective, the ruling sets an important precedent in protecting women from discriminatory norms. The study concludes that applying a gender perspective in the legal field is essential, especially in the education and training of future legal professionals. This work promotes the mainstreaming of gender perspective in law and highlights the importance of academic engagement with global agendas such as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
