Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Strengthening Independent Media for Inclusive Governance in Tunisia
7465016 P014414001
The project aims to enhance the role of national media in raising public awareness and shaping the national agenda on sexual and reproductive rights, and in ending gender-based violence against women in remote rural areas. It would facilitate collaboration among social and health workers, community radio, community leaders and youth to combat social stigmas related to sexual and reproductive rights and gender-based violence. The project would also increase the participation of women’s rights organisations and women leaders in the development of public policies on sexual and reproductive rights, influencing policy makers to implement gender-responsive actions. The project would directly support 140 journalists, 30 media organizations and outlets, and 30 civil society and women’s organizations, reaching an estimated 400,000-600,000 women, adolescents, and gender-diverse people, as well as 9,000,000 Tunisians through media coverage.
