Governance focus for the research. We will only accept grants that have a clear focus on governance. As noted in the description, you don’t necessarily need to focus exclusively on DAO or web3 governance, but your research needs to be applicable to decentralized governance broadly. A focus on Arbitrum or Uniswap is appreciated but not required.
The project clearly focuses on decentralized governance, as indicated by its exploration of 'self-infrastructuring' within decentralised technology communities, with implications for DAOs, blockchain governance, and AI governance.
