DAO-specific Questions

Connect DAO

1. What exactly is Connect DAO? Are we simply connecting with each other?

Connect DAO is not just about “connecting with each other.” Its mission is to facilitate 300 meaningful intergenerational sessions (TECD sessions) between youth and seniors. The goal is to reduce social isolation, foster learning, and create well-being through structured online activities like storytelling, memory games, and music

So, the vision is about building impactful intergenerational bonds while using DAO tools to coordinate, reward contributions, and share outcomes transparently—not only casual connection.

Reflection DAO

1. How will roles be assigned in the Reflection DAO’s program, and can I focus mainly on content creation?

In Reflection DAO, roles aren’t fixed from the very beginning — they’re assigned based on both what the DAO needs and what you’re most interested in. At the start, we’ll try to make sure every group has the basics covered (like proposers, executors, documentors, and storytellers).

If your main interest is content creation — like writing reflections, editing stories, or even designing visuals for the zine — that’s definitely possible. You can let the group know what you’d like to focus on, and usually there’s flexibility to shape your role around your strengths.

That said, we also encourage everyone to try small contributions outside their comfort zone (like facilitation or giving feedback), because that’s part of the learning and experimentation spirit of DEP. But yes — you can absolutely make content creation your primary focus!

2. What are the expected responsibilities for Reflection DAO’s members and the typical time commitment?

Each member is expected to contribute actively to at least one proposal or activity of the DAO. Responsibilities can range from creating content (reflections, stories, design), facilitating discussions, documenting, or supporting logistics. The time commitment is flexible, but usually 3–5 hours per week during the execution phase. Some weeks may be lighter (just attending a story circle), while others may involve more work (like preparing a zine or event).

3. How will Reflection DAO’s teams collaborate and what tools will we use for coordination?

We’ll mainly use:

Discord for day-to-day communication and coordination.
DAO Padlet for member introductions and shared reflections.
XDAO for submitting and voting on proposals.
Google Drive/Folder for storing shared documents, media, and reports.

4. Will the wallet funding be tied to specific tasks or provided as a stipend in Reflection DAO?

Funding is proposal-based. That means each DAO group submits a proposal with its activities, budget, and timeline. If the proposal is approved, the funds are allocated to the group wallet. Within the group, funds are distributed based on roles and contributions — so it’s tied to the tasks and responsibilities members take on, not just a flat stipend for being in the DAO.

5. What other types of contributions are encouraged besides content creation?

Besides content creation, there are actually many ways to contribute to Reflection DAO. At its core, it’s about creating activities that bring people from other DAOs together, helping them feel comfortable to reflect and share. Overall, it will work toward the final goal of producing meaningful reflective outputs.

For example, you could help facilitate story circles or small group discussions — that’s really valuable because it gives people a safe space to share. You could also take notes, document, or even help edit the stories so they can be included in our zine or shared back with the community.

Some of you might be good with visuals or design. You can support layout, graphics, or even create simple posters to invite people to join the reflection activities. Translation is another important contribution, because many of our members are from different countries, so helping to make reflections accessible across languages is a big support.

And of course, even things like coordinating schedules, encouraging others to share, or just giving thoughtful feedback on someone’s reflection also count. So basically, it’s not just about writing stories, it’s about holding space, documenting, designing, translating, and supporting the flow of reflection together.
