DAOStewards is proposing a Delegate Initiative to contribute to Aave DAO governance in three main areas: resource allocation, governance content and activities, and voting participation.

In the first area, DAOStewards aims to help the DAO innovate in the allocation of its resources. It plans to decentralize funding further by testing different ways of allocating resources within the DAO and testing governance adoption of alternative funding mechanisms, Quadratic Matching and Props House.

In the second area, DAOStewards plans to draw on BanklessDAO’s experience to help Aave DAO expand its governance content and activities. During its 3-month campaign, it will act as a catalyst on governance, helping with educational resources, social interactions and events, community building, and iterating on governance structures.

In the third area, DAOStewards plans to make the most of the voting power allocated to it as delegates. It plans to vote on all on-chain proposals and participate in most temp-checks.

Overall, the Delegate Initiative aims to test new funding mechanisms, expand governance content and activities, and increase participation in voting to help Aave DAO grow.
