# The Constitution of [Your Web3 Community]

This repository contains a [forkable template](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metagov/constitution-template/main/constitution.md) for authoring and publishing a textual constitution for a DAO or other Web3 organization. It also contains a copy of all current DAO constitutions from the Constitutions of Web3 data set.

For more information, go to the accompanying article at [constitutions.metagov.org](https://constitutions.metagov.org).

## What is a constitution?

Typically, a constitution articulates *goals*,  *values*, and *rights* within the context of an organization's *decision-making*. It will sometimes describe the decision-making process of that organization, as well as any important institutions within that process (e.g. a legislative body, a president, a treasurer).

Not sure if your governance document is a constitution? Constitutional rights and values are specified informally in all sorts of places: blog posts, manifestos, covenants, governance.md files, etc. If you have a question, please open an issue or submit a pull request, and we can help you figure it out. Some constitutional documents are very short (less than 10 sentences), while others are drafted by lawyers and span 20+ pages.
