# How do I create a policy?

Most policies are created during Governance meetings, or through asynchronous governance proposals. However, if a domain has been delegated to a role, and the role has only one role-filler, then that role can create and update policies related to that domain at any time, without the need for a Governance meeting.

- **How to Create a Policy During a Governance Meeting**  
  To create a policy when processing a Governance agenda item, the Secretary would select the " **Add/Edit Policy**" and choose the " **-- New Policy --**" option.

The Secretary then enters all of the information in the requested fields and click on the " **Accept Proposal**" button.

The policy is now created and may be found in the "Policies" tab of the circle view.

- **How to Create a Policy on a Role's Domain**  
  If a role owns a domain, and there is only one role-filler, they can add a policy on that domain without the need for a Governance meeting.  (If there are multiple role-fillers, you will need to hold a Governance meeting in the role itself to create those policies.)
  
  If you are the single role-filler, then on the role's page under the Domains section, a "**+policy**" will appear under each domain listed. Clicking on it will allow the role-filler to add a policy on that domain.

Fill in the title and body fields and click on the "**Add**" button.

Now "**(1 policy) +**" will appear in the Domain section. You can edit the policy or add a new one by clicking on it.
