Abstract

Abstract: This study analyzes the relationship between Ecuadorian constitutional law and Sustainable Development Goal 5 (gender equality), based on the examination of Constitutional Court Ruling No. 34-19-IN/21. Using a documentary approach and content analysis, it reviews SDG 5 targets related to non-discrimination, the elimination of violence, and access to sexual and reproductive health, and contrasts them with their development and enforceability within Ecuador s constitutional framework. The analysis shows how constitutional review may lead to normative adjustments and highlights the need for coordination between the health and justice systems to ensure effective services for victims of sexual violence, as well as the implementation of monitoring mechanisms and indicators to assess progress. As a contribution, the study offers an integrative reading that links international human rights standards with domestic constitutional practice and suggests research lines on institutional barriers, compliance with constitutional rulings, and the design of sustainable public policies.
