👋 As described in [Aavenomics](https://docs.aave.com/aavenomics/), an important part of the community governance is how governance ideas eventually are implemented in the protocol. I’ll give a short overview of this process, in its current form. (_This post has been updated for V2 governance_) 1. An Aave Request for Comments (ARC) is created and reviewed by the community 2. If the ARC is non-contentious, then an Aave Improvement Proposal (AIP) can be created 3. The AIP, including the necessary payloads, are submitted on-chain for a governance vote. For more information, see our [Governance Docs here](https://docs.aave.com/governance/). ![gov2](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/aave/original/1X/96ed819da74f0527206f432a7c96a43847f30a5f.jpeg) ---

Thank you @daveytea for the process overview! Anyone who’s interested in engaging with Aave governance, I’d also recommend to read this thread from the Maker forum: [https://forum.makerdao.com/t/practical-guide-to-the-signaling-process/2623](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/practical-guide-to-the-signaling-process/2623) This could be a good initial template for handling the Aave’s AIPs moving through the `Discussion and Signal collection phase`. Of course Aave is going to develop its own governance processes but doesn’t hurt to learn from experience! ---

This post has been updated with clearer steps, as well as a link to the new [Governance docs](https://docs.aave.com/governance/). ---

Has it been proposed (or considered) and decided against to grant voting power to $aAAVE holders? ---
