@Evangel Thank you for your proposal. I believe the best way to continue your work is to be a part of the Regional DAO and be a media partner of the DAO.

Hi @Evangel we discussed your proposal in our weekly call and it was agreed there was a need for certain projects to refocus to ensure that their contributions are helping projects building on NEAR.
I would echo the suggestion by @Dacha that the best way forward is for you to work with the Regional DAO.
I understand that in the past you have operated on a global level - but in my opinion its time to help regional communities to achieve their goals.

Hi @Dacha , @cryptocredit , thanks for the answer. I’ve done some research on regional DAO, but a few questions remain.
When we join the Regional DAO, do we need to look for our region and negotiate cooperation with it? For example, we are Ukrainians, but we make content in English, is it better to join one region close to us or continue to use our social networks to support several regions?
The indicative budget for regional communities is $50,000, with a limit of $5,000 per regional community.
If we join a regional community, will we need to collectively request and share this budget between us and the region, or receive funding through the provision of our services?
We do not require you to answer if you find it difficult to answer, but we would like to know where or to whom it is best to ask these questions.

Hi @Evangel thanks for the proposal. Your proposal is similar to others that the MarketingDAO council has put on hold recently while issues with funding for regional groups has been in flux.
At the moment, the NEAR Foundation is working to hire a team member to oversee regional communities, and the NDC is discussing the same issues inside its telegram channels and working groups.
Because of the transitional phase we’re in and many of the decisions that still need to be made, I cannot support this proposal at this time. I realize that the council’s stance on this is likely to be frustrating and comes at a difficult time. It is not personal or a reflection of the worth of your project, but rather because we are working hard to operate within the very specific guidelines that we have been given since last fall’s relaunch of the DAO.
I encourage you to keep building, look for community bounties we have coming out soon and we hope to get a resolution to the regional communities issue from the NEAR Foundation and NDC soon.

Hey [@marketingdao-council](https://gov.near.org/groups/marketingdao-council), thanks for the replies. I will continue to create content for Twitter in the hope of soon receiving the results of the work of the NEAR Foundation and NDC in solving the problem of the regional community.
