Abstract

The Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador, in article 32, provides that: Health is a right guaranteed by the State, whose realization is linked to the exercise of other rights, including the right to water, food, education, physical culture , work, social security, healthy environments and others that support good living. The provision of health services will be governed by the principles of equity, universality, solidarity, interculturality, quality, efficiency, effectiveness, precaution and bioethics with a gender and generational approach.
