How DAO Governance Works

• Proposal Submission:

  • A community member submits a detailed proposal for a change or addition to the protocol.

  • Example: An educator proposes introducing a peer-to-peer tutoring feature within the DLP.

• Discussion Phase:

  • The proposal is open for discussion within the DAO forum. Stakeholders provide feedback, suggest modifications, or express support/opposition.

• Voting Phase:

  • After sufficient discussion, the proposal is put to a vote. Members cast their votes based on their governance token holdings or other participatory criteria.

• Implementation:

  • If the proposal receives majority approval, the change is implemented by the protocol’s technical team or an automated smart contract.

Example Scenario

• Proposal: A learner proposes introducing a gamified learning feature that rewards learners for achieving milestones in specific timeframes.

• Discussion: Educators debate the feasibility and suggest adding AI-driven challenges for personalization.

• Voting: The community votes in favor, allocating funding for the development and testing of the feature.

• Outcome: The gamified feature is launched, increasing learner engagement and retention across the platform.

Governance via DAOs in the DLP is more than a decision-making framework; it is the embodiment of Web3 principles—decentralization, transparency, and community empowerment. By giving every stakeholder a voice and ensuring decisions are driven by collective interests, DAO governance makes the DLP a dynamic, inclusive, and future-proof educational ecosystem.
