The emergence of Covid-19 has placed social protection and care of the family network at the center of the study, as well as the desire to establish a universal and comprehensive agenda for 2030. The serious effects caused by the pandemic suggest that the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) will be limited as a result of the increase in poverty and inequality. For this reason, the objective of this article is to investigate social protection in Latin American countries, especially about the effects of the pandemic in terms of aid, coverage, and benefits in Chile. Then, reflections on the fundamental role of social protection for the fulfillment of the SDGs are presented. And finally, some considerations in this matter.
