Hue is gradually undertaking the inventory, research and development of a database of its Buddhist woodblocks, with the aim of completing a nomination dossier for UNESCO recognition of Hue Buddhist woodblocks as documentary heritage. This process must go hand in hand with practical conservation measures to safeguard these valuable historical sources for generations to come and promote the cultural and historical values preserved in each carved block.

In 2026, Hue City Museum of History aims to conduct surveys, research and upgrade 2 dossiers for nomination as special national relics, and prepare 8 new dossiers to request recognition as city-level relics.
