Community Governance
The current state of community governance at All In For Sport DAO
This page describes how community members participate in governing All In For Sport. As one of the two houses in AIFS's governance structure, Community Governance focuses on protecting our purpose, overseeing treasury decisions, and stewarding the agreements which unite our community.
Purpose
At its heart, Community Governance exists to protect and evolve our shared purpose: bringing together diverse communities in web3 and sports to develop a perpetual funding mechanism for initiatives that advance inclusion and empowerment through sport worldwide.
We do this by:
Making sure all AIFS activities align with our mission
Safeguarding our core values and agreements
Evolving our policies based on community input
Overseeing the treasury and approving funding for operational work
Creating space for broad participation in decision-making
Maintaining our legal structure (UNA) that provides liability protection for members
Common Practices
Our community is made up of members who hold non-transferable membership badges. Anyone agrees to our membership agreements can join. We're committed to non-discrimination and welcome diverse participation from anyone aligned with our shared values.
Important to know:
Members aren't agents of the DAO and can't bind it to any obligations
Members aren't personally liable for DAO obligations
Members who violate our community standards may have their membership revoked through a "Guild Kick" process
How Decisions are Made
Our governance process is designed to be accessible and transparent:
Leadership Structure The operating agreement provides for a "DAO Advisory Group" to interpret governance questions. While not yet established, this group will serve as a governance backstop and policy administrator within Community Governance.
Proposal Journey Any member can create a proposal following our standards. We've designed a simple process:
Draft proposals are shared for community feedback
After incorporating input, proposals move to formal voting
Approved changes are implemented and documented

Our Governance Journey
Community Governance at AIFS has evolved through several phases:
Beginnings (Epoch 0) We started with informal working groups and Telegram-based voting. This early period established our foundation through grassroots organization.
Formalization (Epoch 1) We created our formal structure through AIFSIP-01, establishing ourselves as a UNA with proper infrastructure for governance.
Where We Are Now We're developing comprehensive membership guidelines and governance processes that balance community input with efficient decision-making.
Treasury Oversight
We track all treasury activity transparently onchain, with separate logs for Ethereum and Polygon transactions.
Should the DAO ever dissolve, or break from its UNA agreement, our operating agreement requires that any remaining funds be donated to a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.
Looking Forward
We're working toward:
Getting more members involved in proposal development
Improving education about our governance processes
Refining how Community and Operational Governance work together
Building the perpetual funding mechanism at the heart of our mission
Creating sustainable governance that can grow with us
