Caution, environmental law, human rightsAbstract
The main objective of this article is to identify how the precautionary principle in environmental matters is born, and to determine the importance that it has within Ecuadorian legislation, through the analysis of international and national regulations. It should be noted that reference is made to the study of an advisory opinion issued by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, particularly number OC-23/17 under the identification of the Environment and Human Rights, requested by the Republic of Colombia. In the study process, an exploratory investigation was carried out, based on the analysis of documents, through comparative law. This research is based on the determination and great impact or influence of international criteria of the precautionary principle in Ecuador, thus demonstrating the interdependence of human rights.
