Abstract: In recent years we have witnessed a phenomenon called aging by significantly increasing the population over 75 years, a phenomenon that could be explained by the increased quality of life and health services. In reality there are not enough social services, neither quantitative nor qualitative. Globalization affects social services. Pan- European institutions such as the Council of Europe and the EU play a crucial role, through various transnational projects and other activities. Providing social services for older people is a priority for Europe today. Regarding the situation of European countries in terms of social services, there are similarities between countries such as the fight against social exclusion, but also marked differences in the cultural, historical, and economic. One important thing is whether countries can learn from each other on the social services system.
