The desired impact of our research is to empower communities by providing them with advanced tools and processes for knowledge management and governance. By integrating a canvas feature into the KOI architecture, we aim to enhance the ways in which collectives manage, share, and build upon their knowledge, fostering more effective and cohesive collaboration.

This canvas interface would bring together relevant context from your organization, decision-making tools like checkbox voting, collective proposals, task allocation, or other tools. Instead of consistently switching between contexts to remember high level goals, specific proposal details, or the next steps to be done, they can all be rendered in a joint sense-making canvas. 

A few opportunities for this canvas would be to \- 

1. Represent the tasks that need to be done and individuals who might want to take responsibility for those tasks.   
2. Create, vote on, and revise proposals for future projects.   
3. Jointly decide, agree on, and allocate funding for various tasks
