CFC Membership
For the next iteration of the Collective Feedback Commission, we’re experimenting with a new membership selection method. As a reminder, pilot membership was determined via delegation rankings in the Token House and via demonstrable contributions in the Citizens’ House. The Token House selection method led to a high degree of overlap between members of the CFC and other leadership roles and the second iteration aims to make the Citizens’ House selection method more transparent and objective.
The below members have been selected to participate in the second iteration of the CFC, as described below for each track, based on their demonstrated contribution and expertise in a relevant domain, verifiable via attestations issued by the Foundation. The requirement for receiving a metagovernance attestation is implementation by the Foundation.
As the Collective scales, being able to identify the expertise and contributions of participants will be crucial for selecting the individuals best suited to a given role or decision. It will also allow the Collective to objectively select participants without resorting to plutocractic selection methods, an important principle in our Working Constitution (anti-plutocracy.) The selection of participants for the next iteration of the Collective Feedback Commission is a first step in this direction.
