Esterilización quirúrgica en personas con discapacidad: Derecho a la sexualidad y reproducción frente al consentimiento sustitutivo

Abstract

In this research i´m bringing down a jurisprudential and normative analysis about the involuntary surgical sterilization with disabeld people in Colombia. This topic contfronts the right of sexuality and reproduction with the substitute consent of the parents of these persons, in the search for the prevalence of the enjoyment of fundamental rights and autonomy of the will on the need for surgical intervention with which unwanted pregnancies are prevented permanently, affecting the freedom and sexual health of mental disabled people whenever this form of contraception curtails the possibility of choose to be parents without providing the opportunity to access information or relevant sex education to make the decision responsibly.
