Abstract
This study explores the outcome of tourism development and out-migration during the pandemic upon the Balinese young adult’s attachment to their place, through their perspectives about the important value of a place in their life and their motivation to build the community. This study argues that tourism development shifted the physical form of land and created an economic gap between the urban areas and rural areas. Further, these disruptions are assumed to influence the way Balinese youth-positive attachment as motivation to empower their community through agriculture. As it is believed that people with a positive upbringing have a sense of responsibility and respect for their place or even the community. Relating to Balinese cultural concept, Balinese ways of life is embedded in their profound belief in the human bond with nature and agricultural tradition. Hence in this sense, it is argued that when they have a positive attachment towards the rural area, it can further prepare the communities to become sustainable and resilient in the face of possible risks such as displacement and unemployment. As the dynamics of place attachment differ, the study employs qualitative methods to excavate several individuals' attachment values from rural areas in Bali. Through semi- structured interviews, the study analyses the findings from affective and cognitive perspectives, and evaluates their motivation to achieve sustainability and enhancing their community. Based on the findings, the research proposes further research in place attachment studies for rural areas and development initiatives from the context of Indonesia.
