✨ A small journey – opening up a broader perspective on the “green economy”

In March 2026, Star Consulting conducted two training programs on Green Economy and Sustainable Development in Thanh Hoa and Nghe An, engaging farm owners and agricultural households—those who directly create value from the land and are deeply connected to local ecosystems.

What stood out most to us was not the concepts of ESG or international standards, but the very practical questions raised by participants:

👉 “If we go green, can we sell at a higher price?”

👉 “Will recording and measuring help us access better markets?”

👉 “Do international certifications really open up new opportunities?”

From these questions, a clear perspective gradually emerged:The “green economy” is not a distant concept, but a new approach to:

• Optimize costs and improve production efficiency;

• Enhance product credibility in the market;

• And progressively increase output value in a sustainable way.

💡 When introduced to emissions accounting, many participants realized for the first time that everyday activities—such as electricity use, fertilizers, and by-product management—can be measured and become the “environmental footprint” of their production models.

💡 Through discussions on international standards and certifications, some participants began to see new possibilities: not only operating within local markets, but also integrating into broader supply chains.

Notably, after the program, many participants proactively committed to concrete actions:

✔ Start documenting production processes.

✔ Optimize resource use and reduce emissions.

✔ Explore pathways toward relevant certifications.

🌱 For Star Consulting, such programs go beyond training—they are the starting point for connecting:

• Local businesses

• International standards

• And technology solutions (such as carbon accounting)

If we were to summarize, we believe:

👉 “The green economy is not a story of the future—it is a competitive advantage for those who start early.”

Star Consulting sincerely thanks Thanh Hoa and Nghe An for the open, practical, and inspiring discussions throughout this green transformation journey 🌿
