1. Which goals does the strategy look to drive progress in?
Resilience through decentralization (Goal 2): The Safe Ecosystem shall be independent from any single entity. The Safe Ecosystem components, including governance, should be decentralized and permissionless.
2. Which metrics and KPIs could initiatives under this strategy be measured against?
- Creation of tooling with believable impact on transparency
- Impact on governance participation (direct attributable increase in participation through tool): amount of tokens used for voting, amount of individual voters, distribution of voting power
- Impact on facilitation of governance process
3. Outline the execution strategy or thesis
Increasing accessibility through tooling, services and campaigns to increase active participation in governance processes and to enhance transparency and efficiency in the governance system. Additionally, increase contributor effectiveness through real-time accountability mechanisms, to increase the decentralization and capture-resistance of the DAO
4. What are some example initiatives that would fall under this strategy
- Development of analytics dashboards for real-time tracking of governance activities.
- Introduction of authentication solutions to secure and streamline the participation of stakeholders in the governance process.
- CRM tools specialized for governance to facilitate communication and decision-making.
- Implementation of partial delegation systems to encourage broader participation.
- Milestone tracking system or service to ensure transparency and accountability in governance decisions and resource allocation
- Development and execution of campaigns to encourage delegation and delegate participation
- Formalizing the power and decision-making structures (roles) in the DAO to create clarity, transparency, and accountability
- Automating authority and access management as a way to create security, decentralization, and accountability
5. Detail around existing data or evidence to support this thesis
There are various case studies how governance tooling, services and campaigns are being utilized. The following only serve as an example:
- Authentication Solutions: Platforms like Llama, Hats Protocol and Aragon aim to provide secure access control and action execution in governance. Lido is utilizing Aragon to secure its governance.
