Shaping Cardano's future: progress on the constitutional committee elections
The journey towards a decentralized, community-led governance model for Cardano continues to advance.

The journey towards a decentralized, community-led governance model for Cardano continues to advance. This update introduces the ongoing preparations for the upcoming Constitutional Committee (CC) elections and highlights how the process has been thoughtfully designed in collaboration with both Intersect members and the wider Cardano community.
Work on establishing the CC Election Working Group began in November 2024 with initial ideas and considerations. These ideas were refined through two productive workshops involving the Interim Constitutional Committee (ICC), building upon experiences from the ICC elections held in 2024. Key areas identified for improvement included providing sufficient time for candidate registration and campaigning, clear communication around voting processes, and opportunities for community members to engage directly with candidates.
Guided by input from the ICC, the Working Group was formally established in late January, comprising representatives from the ICC, Civics Committee, constitutional delegates, and the broader Cardano community, supported by Intersect staff. This approach ensured the Working Group included a diverse set of perspectives.
The Working Group, approved by the Civics Committee, has finalized and approved the election plans and timeline. Additionally, clear criteria and expectations for CC candidates are being developed so potential candidates fully understand the role. An ongoing communication plan is also in place, featuring regular newsletters, open AMA sessions, and engagement through community forums like X Spaces.
(Exact dates remain to be finalized)
The overall objective is a straightforward, accessible process for any ada holder, whether participating as a candidate or voter. Ultimately, the fully elected Constitutional Committee will be ratified by Delegated Representatives (DReps) and Stake Pool Operators (SPOs) on-chain.
Intersect’s role throughout is supportive, advisory, and oversight-focused, ensuring alignment with both the Cardano Constitution and community expectations.
