- Local DAOs

Local Resonance
PDX DAO functions as a permissionless coalition of local DAOs. Anyone can create a DAO in the PDX DAO ecosystem and any DAO can join the ecosystem. Membership eligibility is a social construct emergent from the relationships of participating orgs. As we grow as a coalition, we will be building out a decentralized governance model with an eye toward an on-chain democratic confederation.
Ethereal Forest is currently engaging in research and community outreach to work toward this participatory cityDAO infrastructure.
