# Butter'd Aave Delegate Initiatives

Over the past four weeks, the Butter team has been working on setting up a three-month Delegation Campaign at Aave.

👔 **We're delighted that 13 delegates are standing for candidacy** – and we'd like to introduce them!

Some of these delegates are already well-known, while others are up-and-coming. Some are already deeply involved in Aave, while others have spent time as delegates or contributors in other protocols.

The goal of this pilot was to **increase the pool of delegates** tokenholders can select from because we believe that governance is most effective when it is inclusive and representative of its stakeholders.

To that end, we're excited that governance incentives (with a helping hand from Aave Grants DAO) have helped attract a diverse set of delegates ready to support tokenholders and contribute new ideas to Aave’s continued success.
