Eficacia de la mediación dentro del ámbito de pensiones alimenticias

Abstract

Within the Ecuadorian judicial system, we find several mechanisms for accessing legal defense. Among these, we can highlight alternative dispute resolution methods, which are a relatively new tool within the Ecuadorian judicial system. In the area of child support in Ecuador, mediation has been an effective system that has developed rapidly within the Ecuadorian legal framework. However, it still presents several challenges in its development, thus exhibiting both advantages and disadvantages compared to traditionally known mechanisms. By analyzing and comparing the effectiveness of the proposed alternative method for resolving conflicts and disputes, mediation, we can discover how this new alternative has been an important tool for developing solutions within family law, focusing specifically on child support in the Ecuadorian system. Furthermore, we can observe the challenges it currently faces. It is for this reason that, in the present research work, a mixed methodology will be carried out, because it will allow us to measure results and understand perceptions, this is important because, by being able to use mixed techniques, we will be able to obtain results in a clear, understandable way and above all, it will facilitate obtaining them, since by integrating a quantitative and a qualitative analysis within the research, we can achieve a deep understanding of the topic being studied.
