Department Purpose & Mission/Value Alignment

The mission of the Governance Department is to steward governance conversation in BanklessDAO

By streamlining governance conversations and operations under a department, the DAO is able to become more efficient and effective at governing itself, thus acting as a catalyst towards fulfilling the mission of the DAO.

Season 9 Activities

Delegated governance 🏃‍♂️

Temp Check [here] has been posted. We will continue working on this for the rest of this season as well as the next season

Onchain permissioning and roles management ✅

Temp Check [here] has been posted, and we posted a bDIP [here] based on feedback

We have also investigated various options on how to implement this and have been actively working with Hats Protocol. We will continue working on V2 in S10.

DAO Legal Entity ❌

Temp Check [here] was posted. Based on the discussions we have had, there are many diverse opinions about this within the DAO. While there are several ways we can proceed, we lack a steward who can drive this home, therefore we will not actively work on this till such a steward is found. We are happy to support anyone who wishes to take this up in S10, however, this will not be a priority for the department

DAO Goals alignment

We have had several discussions on this topic, however there is no consenus on the next steps yet. We will continue working on this in S10.

Clarify mandate for Grants Committiee and/or Departments ✅

We worked with the GC to clarify this which resulted in one temp check [here] as well as an announcement [here]. The GC has revamped funding for S10 and departments have been mandated to produce a Purpose in order to receive funding for S10.
