Indigenous knowledge of forest turned into profit
Scientists assess that indigenous knowledge and forest resources along the Truong Son mountain range are significantly potential for its development if utilized properly. Moreover, today’s youth are also becoming interested in the indigenous knowledge when visiting forests, thereby spreading the message of forest protection further.
As the number of tourists visiting forests increases, there is a growing demand for herbal remedies, along with non-timber forest products being increasingly preferred. Thanks to this, the precious herbal resources of Vietnam are being preserved and propagated by local people, ensuring sustainable exploitation.
