Abstract

El presente artículo busca comprender un tema que suscita discusiones interminables dentro de la sociedad: la eutanasia. Hasta ahora solo se pensaba que el derecho a morir dignamente en Colombia le pertenecía a los mayores de edad; sin embargo, por mandato de la Corte Constitucional, se ha abierto la oportunidad para que menores de edad accedan a este procedimiento. Colombia es el tercer país del mundo en establecer un trámite para la eutanasia en menores de edad, pero esta regulación ha despertado serias dudas y ha avivado el debate acerca de las implicaciones éticas, sociales y jurídicas de la eutanasia. This article seeks to understand Euthanasia as a topic that raises endless discussions in our society. Until now, the right to die with dignity was only thought for those who were of legal age in Colombia; however, by order of the Constitutional Court, this opportunity has been opened for minors to access it. Colombia is the third country in the world to establish a procedure for Euthanasia for minors, but this regulation has raised serious doubts and has fueled the debate about its ethical, social, and legal implications.
