The resolution aims to research, restore, preserve traditional festivals of ethnic minorities, revive the craft of brocade weaving and basketry in local villages.

All communes are supported with drums, gongs, costumes, and jewelry to facilitate traditional cultural activities locally. Ethnic minority boarding school students, high school students, and elementary and middle school students wear traditional costumes on festive occasions.

Since 2023, intangible cultural heritage conservation (gong playing) for Ca Dong, Xe Dang, and Mo Nong ethnic minorities has begun. Club members in villages and community groups participate in classes led by district artisans.
