July 2022 dGov Report
At today’s date dGov has distributed 39 identified functional roles. The process to distribute governance support has had it’s challenges. It was expected that there would be roles offered that would have been easier to do myself but the point was to decentralise governance towards the community and away from myself as a member of the ESD. Ultimately weaknesses are a reflection of my own leadership failings. That said, contributors in diverse places have delivered above and beyond, without me and my heartfelt thanks go out those crew, you know who you are.

[PIVOT]- Understanding: Document frequently asked questions to build shared understanding for inclusion in Community handbook v 2.0 Shared Conversations. People have a vast array of questions about Governance for which there is no easy way to present Q & A in the handbook. The handbook would be best used to highlight key governance documents, as the dGov survey shows that more than 20% of people surveyed were not aware of the existence of the Charter and subsequently Community Guidelines. The Pivot here is to apply both the FAQ and S1 learning experiment to gamify the context-building process for DAO governance through self-paced discovery and learning.
