Abstract

The general objective of the research was to carry out a legal analysis of begging among the elderly in Tulcán, Ecuador. The method used in the research was based on a qualitative approach, with the collection and analysis of a documentary-bibliographic typology. The research technique used was the interview. An analytical-reflexive process was generated. It is concluded that begging is a problem that is experienced on a daily basis and that each person in the city of Tulcán who is in a state of begging without the necessary support will become an elderly person. As with many other problems, the recognition of the rights of this age group is being violated, as there is still no plan or project that goes beyond the bonus for the elderly.
