N2 - This chapter suggests alternative approaches (alternative to ‘business as usual’) which build on the capabilities of young people at risk of leaving the land premised on a non-anthropocentric approach that fosters sustainable development through job creation. Non-anthropocentrism refers to the approach where human beings appreciate that they share one habitat with other living systems. Binary oppositional thinking results in anthropocentric policy and governance practices that do not protect the habitat of living systems and that frame development in terms of profit by the minority elites at the expense of the majority within this generation and the next.
