Ítem Acceso Abierto “Análisis del conflicto jurídico entre los derechos del alimentante con enfermedades catastróficas y el principio de interés superior del niño en el Ecuador: Un estudio de la jurisprudencia constitucional 2015-2024”(Universidad Católica de Cuenca, 2025) Suconota Zhumi, Diana Elizabeth; Valarezo Cordero, Juan Fernando; 0105845457This paper focuses on the legal analysis of the conflict that arises when an individual is obligated to pay child support but suffers from a catastrophic illness that prevents them from fulfilling that responsibility. This conflict centers on the need to balance the child’s right to receive support with the rights of the supporter, who, due to a serious illness such as cancer, is unable to generate income to meet their child support obligations. The Constitution recognizes the rights of minors and the rights to health and life of the supporter. Ecuadorian legislation, including the Code on Children and Adolescents and the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador, will be analyzed in relation to the best interests of the child, the rights of vulnerable individuals, and the need to protect persons with catastrophic illnesses who may be unable to fulfill their financial responsibilities, to determine an appropriate legal solution to issue.Ítem Acceso Abierto “El interés superior del niño en casos de tenencia: Análisis comparado de la jurisprudencia estadounidense y ecuatoriana (2018-2023)”(Universidad Católica de Cuenca, 2025) Morales Jara , Cesar Arnoldo; Valarezo Cordero, Juan Fernando; 0106560436This article analyzes the application of the best interests of the child principle in custody cases through a comparative study of Ecuadorian and U.S. jurisprudence between 2018 and 2023. A qualitative methodology with a legal-comparative approach is applied to identify similarities and divergences in the judicial evaluation of factors such as the child's emotional stability, parental bonds, participation in proceedings, and the role of mediation. In the United States, the best interests of the child doctrine allows for a flexible, context-driven interpretation focused on family dynamics and parental suitability. In Ecuador, although the principle is enshrined constitutionally, judicial interpretation remains inconsistent. The comparative analysis reveals meaningful progress in both systems, alongside challenges for a coherent and child-centered application of the standard. The article concludes with recommendations aimed at strengthening effective judicial protection of children's rights in custody-related disputes.
