Major recommendations include a diversified approach with emphasis on entrepreneurship programs that can offer alternative sources of income as opposed to seeking employment; the national and county governments designing youth policies and programs that can empower youth with income-generating and other entrepreneurship skills that could improve the quality of life in the rural areas; investing inappropriate programs that could be used as a recruitment tool for young people’s involvement in such activities; and ensuring that youth have unbridled access to information and knowledge that that is relevant to the socio-economic situation in rural areas. This study is significant for policy-makers, academics, community development practitioners, and county and national governments in Kenya. The article structure includes an introduction, profile and description of the study area, literature review, methodology, and findings, discussion, conclusion and recommendations.
