The democracy module will bring decentralized governance to Encointer, facilitating participants to take decisions. Such a **universal human suffrage** (one person one vote) governance shall render the current Encointer council obsolete. Examples of such decisions are the addition of new meetup locations to a community, an adjustment of the Demurrage rate or changes in the ceremony schdeule.

Such a **universal human suffrage** (one person one vote) governance shall render the current Encointer council or any other centralized body obsolete. Examples of such decisions are the addition of new meetup locations to a community, an adjustment of the Demurrage rate or changes in the ceremony schedule.

The decision making process should follow the subsidiarity principle, meaning that decisions should be taken on the lowest possible level. So for example, if a community wants to extend their region by adding some new meetup locations, only community members should be allowed to participate in the vote.
