description | The objective of this research is to determine the implications of aging of people on the development of Boyacá State, analyzing the period between 1985 and 2005 as historical data and from 2006 to 2020 as estimated data. For this purpose, we used a case study carried out in the municipality of Chinavita, province of Valle de Tenza in Boyacá, Colombia. The application of the methodology allowed determining that there is a direct relationship between economic growth and the migration processes of the younger population, which directly impacts on the profitable capability of the municipality. In this sense, some of the most important factors that cause high levels of migration are the lack of opportunities for employment and education opportunities in rural areas. In addition to this, potential risks in the sustainability of both the social security and protection system and besides, public finances aimed to elderly care programs. The absence of formal employment, which allows young people to contribute to the social security and protection system, reveals a possible crisis in the pension system. In this context, it is shown the need for a serious and responsible state policy that addresses the issue of aging of people in a comprehensive manner. |

El objetivo de esta investigación es determinar las implicaciones del envejecimiento en el desarrollo del departamento de Boyacá, analizando el periodo entre 1985 y 2005, como datos históricos, y del 2006 al 2020 como datos estimados. Se recurrió a un estudio de caso realizado en el municipio de Chinavita, Boyacá, Colombia. Los resultados permitieron establecer que existe una relación directa entre el crecimiento económico y los procesos migratorios de la población más joven, lo que impacta directamente en la capacidad productiva del municipio. Algunos de los factores que causan los altos niveles de migración son la falta de oportunidades de empleo y educación de las zonas rurales. A esto se suman posibles riesgos en la sostenibilidad tanto del sistema de seguridad y protección social como de las finanzas públicas, destinadas a programas de atención del adulto mayor. La ausencia de empleo formal, que permita que los jóvenes coticen en el sistema de seguridad y protección social, pone de manifiesto una posible crisis en el sistema pensional. Lo anterior evidencia la necesidad de una política de Estado seria y responsable, que aborde el tema del envejecimiento de manera integral.
