Through the historical process of construction and consolidation of modernity, the concept of development was associated with economic progress and sustained a way of life that resulted in a series of negative effects from the social, human and environmental point of view, in Its majority, evidenced by the fragilization of social bonds. With globalization, the current modes of subjectivation, influenced by the instrumentalization and mercantilization of relations, by the fragmentation of the identity institutions and by the exacerbated hedonism result in new and varied forms of Uneasiness and an unprecedented environmental crisis. The strategies that propose a new paradigm and new operandi modes of existence are being thought of in a pressing way. The greater assumption that guides these strategies is the expansion of the notion of development, considering the more global aspects of human and environmental needs, going beyond the previous idea that measured happiness by the ability to access the goods and Services and material resources. In contrast to the neoliberalism that feeds the growing individualism, sustainable regional development considers the human being as a social being, which constitutes its identity from the relationship with others and stresses the importance of diversity Cultural, cooperation and solidarity. Alternative routes emerge: ecological and biocentric vision, community belonging, planetary ethics and the philosophy of good living are examples. This work sought to reflect on these routes, possible and imaginable future paths. Through exploratory and descriptive research and qualitative nature intended to shed light on the steps already given in these directions-from the roots to the already visible flowering-from a review of theoretical-scientific and philosophical bibliographies, and a Document content analysis; Music letters, poetry, photographs and maps related to a group of young people from the Horto community in Juazeiro do Norte, Cariri, Ceará. In view of the experiences and reflections, it was observed that the strengthening of territoriality present in the group of young people studied appears as a possibility of openness to the growth of each and every one, as potency for tangible and intangible frufications that Can favor the subtle web that sustains life. As the debate on sustainable development – especially in its cultural facet – has become increasingly anachronistic in the perspective of current hegemonic forces, the relevance of reflections is strengthened.
