This referendum proposes to enact the Polkadot Ambassador Fellowship Manifesto.

The goal is to create a programme that encompasses the learnings from programmes 1.0 and 2.0 and marry that with the wide ranging community feedback that had been offered throughout the course of the last year, particularly in the past few months.

During this process we have started the creation of a community culture amongst a growing number of people and have turned this collaboration into a manifesto reflective of a programme that can serve Polkadot now and in the future :

**Learning from the Past, Clear Vision for the Future
**The Ambassadors' chronicle reaches back many years.
Key learnings from the past help us forge a clear vision for what's to come—what we need, what we want, what we must achieve—all derived from the past.
And this allows us to learn from our mistakes.

**Rooting Values and Principles
**Initial values were changed, principles scattered and spread wide apart.
We work to return to our roots, rebuild values and principles and unite what once was divided.

**Collaboration Instead of Competition
**Together we stand, divided we fall.
We bring back a culture of community as the core.
We work together, not against one another.
We listen, support, and ensure that those who come will also stay.

**Grassroots, But with Structure
**We keep things human, simple, and fair.
Not bureaucracy, but lively engagement with some organisation.
And yet, we keep structure and common sense—flexible but solid, growing yet resilient, a manifesto to stand the tides of time.

**From the Community, For the Community
**We are people like you and me, coming together.
A community, for the community.
From builders, for builders.
We meet on equal terms, and equally build the collective's future.

**A Door to Many Paths and Worlds
**The Ambassadors community is a starting point—an open door to many journeys.
Start here, find your path, get guidance, and make connections.
Wherever you go, we're with you.

The Polkadot Ambassador Fellowship is resilient to change, uncoupled from salaries, focussed on building the largest on-chain decentralised community in the world.
