DAO Drive Folder Guide

Estimated reading: 3 minutes 4 views

This folder is the central library for your DAO’s proposals, reports, impact records, and creative work.

Please help us keep it organized so everyone can easily find, reference, and celebrate our DAO's journey!

The DAO-specific Drive links are in page Onboarding Hub.

Folder Structure Overview

The drive is divided into two main areas:

Main Folder	Purpose	Access Level
DAO Shared Library (View Only)	Finalized proposals, reports, trackers, learning archive	View Only
DAO Working Files (Editable)	Drafts and work-in-progress files for collaboration	Editable

Subfolder Name	Purpose
Final Proposals	Approved proposals that were voted and accepted
Approved Reports	Final versions of completed DAO activity reports
Impact Trackers	DAO-level or project-level tracking sheets showing impact progress (e.g., trees planted, meals served)
Learning Archive	Reflection stories, creative submissions, important insights gathered along the journey
DAO Code & Governance	Playbook, governance guidelines, proposal/report templates

✅ These documents are official and should not be modified.
✅ Make a copy if you want to comment or build upon them.

Subfolder Name	Purpose
Draft Proposals	In-progress proposal drafts before voting
Draft Reports	Working drafts of activity reports before submission
Contribution Logs	Logs related to contribution points tracking (if applicable)
Internal Planning Notes	Notes, brainstorming documents, volunteer schedules, etc.
Creative Submissions	Drafts of personal reflections, drawings, poems, videos, etc.

✅ These documents are actively editable by DAO members.
✅ DAO Facilitators will help move finalized documents into the Shared Library when ready.

To keep things clean and searchable, please use the following format when creating new files:

[YYYY-MM-DD] - [File Type] - [Short Description]

Examples:

✅ Always include the full date (year-month-day).
✅ Keep short descriptions clear and focused.

Please do not move or delete existing files without checking with your DAO Facilitator.
Drafts can be freely updated in the "DAO Working Files" folder.
Final documents will be moved into the "DAO Shared Library" after review.
Respect the View Only permissions — make a copy if you want to modify final documents.
For creative submissions (photos, drawings, poems), you can create a subfolder inside "Creative Submissions" if needed.

Organize drafts into appropriate subfolders — this helps the DAO collaborate smoothly.
Use clear, respectful language in all shared documents.
DAO Facilitators will help review and clean up folders monthly if needed.

Together, we’re not just growing projects — we’re building shared knowledge for future decentralized builders!
