In addition, currently, 8/12 village women's associations have set up sinus dance teams, regularly participating in ethnic cultural performances in festivals, holidays, Tet and contests inside and outside the district. 100% of women's unions in the commune have established labor exchange groups, imbued with cultural beauty in the life and production of the Ede people, in which each branch has 2-3 groups, with 10 or more family members. Every year, the sisters support each other over 3.000 working days, helping to reduce production labor costs, increase incomes, and improve the lives of members' families.

With the motto "Each member and woman is an active factor in preserving and continuing the cultural values of the nation", the Commune Women's Union also focuses on promoting the role of female artisans in transmitting traditional culture to the younger generation through activities, movements, association work, and exchange activities between units.
As a result, up to now, the Commune Women's Union has built up a contingent of neighboring women who can maintain a number of traditional occupations, with 50 women knowing how to weave brocade, sew Ede costumes, 350 women maintaining the profession of making can wine from traditional ingredients.
Like Ms. H'Ten Byă (in M'Truong M'Um village) so far, she has had more than 30 years of working with the traditional Can wine-making profession of the Ede people. Not only continuing to work, Ms. H'Ten is also willing to teach how to make yeast, make wine, and cook traditional dishes for young people in the village with the hope that the traditional winemaking technique will be continued and not lost.
Or Ms. H'DJuon Niê (in Hoang village) has had a passion for sinus dance since a very young age. To preserve and promote the sinus dances of the Ede, Ms. H'DJuon established a sinus dance team in the village; combined with the Commune Women's Union to open sinus dance classes for women interested in national culture. Thanks to that, many women have learned and danced proficiently many sinus dances.
