In five years, Hanoi targets that craft villages' average production value grows by 10% per annum, that 100% of recognized craft villages comply with environmental regulations, and that at least 30% of these villages will have showrooms, sales points, and access to e-commerce platforms.

The city also aims to digitize 300 craft village products, develop a Hanoi craft village vlog channel, publish an electronic craft village handbook, and establish value chains for industries with multiple participating villages and high labor demand.

By 2050, Hanoi aims to restore and preserve at least 10 endangered traditional crafts and craft villages, recognize at least 10 new crafts and 20 new craft villages, develop at least 20 craft villages linked to tourism, and establish 20 routes touring craft villages.

The city envisions that 80% of recognized craft villages will operate efficiently, with 90% of workers receiving training to enhance their skills, safety awareness, and IT knowledge.

The capital eyes to have at least 300 craft villages possess OCOP-certified products, half of recognized craft villages retain intellectual property protection for their products, and half of craft villages establish showrooms, and online sales platforms.

Hanoi also aims for an average annual production value growth of approximately 10% by 2050. The city will also strive to ensure 100% of recognized craft villages comply with environmental regulations.

The plan's beneficiaries include legible enterprises, cooperatives, partnerships, and households being active in craft villages and traditional craft villages across Hanoi.

To achieve these goals, the city outlines 10 key solutions. They include craft village planning, raising public awareness, strengthening government management capacity, and refining policies to support craft village preservation and development.

Hanoi will also work to secure and stabilize supplies of raw materials for craft villages, improve production conditions and environmental protection, enhance workforce training, and apply scientific and technological advancements in production.

In terms of commerce, the city plans to expand services supporting craft village development, promote trade and branding through the OCOP program, integrate craft villages with tourism, accelerate digital transformation, and encourage private sector investment in the plan's implementation.

The Hanoi People's Committee has assigned the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to lead the implementation, in coordination with relevant departments, district-level authorities, and other stakeholders.
