Social welfare as a right, is called upon to satisfy the minimum requirements that are presented in different contingencies of life, within these is old age. Human aging and its exponential growth generate the imminent necessity for world governments to implement efficient and effective measures to protect the elderly who are in a state of manifest weakness. The historical development of social welfare, the legal and constitutional protection to the elderly and the challenges arising from COVID-19 in the social security pension system, is a calling to create a system for the comprehensive protection for elderly adults in Colombia.

Keywords : Social welfare; elderly; security pension system; comprehension protection for elderly adults; COVID-19.
