A Study on the Diffusion Strategies of Wood Culture Using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP)

Abstract

The diffusion strategies of wood culture were established using the analytic hierarchy process, to prepare a diffusion plan of wood culture and wood utilization in response to climate change due to global warming. ‘Standardization of wood culture’, ‘Valuation of wood culture’, and ‘Habituation of wood culture’ were set as three major implementation strategies and priorities were evaluated. As a result, it was analyzed in the following order: ‘Development of systematic education programs for each age group for rational and efficient use of eco-friendly wood materials and development of wood education standard guidelines linked to the curriculum’, ‘Preparation of scientific basis data on human compatibility and eco-friendliness of wood to ensure the reliability of wood and wood products’, and ‘Establishment of monitoring and improvement plan through the designation as a model school’. Through this, it was determined that an educational environment, changes in public attitudes through publicity, and expanding opportunities to use wood and wood products were necessary for wood culture diffusion. The results of this study can be used as basic data to derive the diffusion strategies of wood culture and establish a roadmap and policy implementation strategy to revitalize wood culture.
