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.

Advancing period equity: Mobilizing communities through advocacy
WP240054
Through this 32-month project, The Period Purse will build its capacity to advance gender equality. It will address the gap in research of who experiences period poverty and how period poverty presents in communities experiencing period poverty; identify needs and trends in period poverty across youth demographics; and identify the barriers and limitations to creating period-positive spaces while generating productive conversations around menstrual equity with various decision makers and policy developers. The project will include the development of an advocacy strategy and toolkit informed by people with lived experience; strengthening community engagement strategies; and delivering training on advocacy and engagement strategies to equip staff, volunteers, and the Board of Directors to advance system change for menstrual equity.
