15:44, 08/04/2026 (DTTG) - Abstract: This article analyzes the interactive relationship between the traditional customs and practices of ethnic minority groups and the process of building new rural areas in Vietnam. Based on a cultural-development approach, the research indicates that the customary systems of ethnic minority communities are both an endogenous resource supporting the implementation of new rural development criteria and a potential barrier in terms of behavior, perception and social institutions. By identifying positive customary factors such as community cohesion, environmental protection and identity preservation, as well as negative factors such as outdated production practices, costly rituals and conflicts between customary and legal laws, this article proposes several flexible approaches suitable to the cultural context of ethnic minority and mountainous areas. Therefore, emphasizing the role of community-based development, local institutional improvement and the harmonious combination of preserving traditional culture with promoting innovation in building new rural areas in a sustainable and inclusive manner.
