Proposals

Proposals are how DAOs make decisions, this guide shows you how to create, manage, and vote on them.

Proposals are the foundation of DAO governance, enabling community members to suggest changes, allocate resources, and make collective decisions. This guide covers everything you need to know about creating, managing, and voting on proposals.

Proposals are the primary mechanism for DAO evolution and decision-making. Active participation in the proposal process is essential for effective governance.
