Anthropocentric Value

Humanity viewed as the dominant influence. The value that something has for human beings and human purposes (Pascual et al., 2017). The opposite of a non-anthropocentric value, where value is centred on something other than human beings. These values can be non-instrumental or instrumental to non-human ends (IPBES/4/INF/13). https://zenodo.org/records/5657079#.ZEfhZc5ByUm
