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.

Zanzibar Women Leadership in Adaptation (ZanzAdapt)
7452933 P011941001
This project enhances climate resilience and promotes sustainable development in the unique ecosystems of Zanzibar through a nature-based approach. It works closely with local communities to restore and protect mangrove forests, establish climate-smart agroforestry systems, and implement sustainable land and water management practices. Through capacity building and training, the project empowers farmers and community members to adopt climate-resilient agricultural techniques and improve natural resource management. Additionally, the project aims to strengthen climate information systems, enabling communities to make informed decisions and respond effectively to changing climate patterns. By integrating gender-responsive approaches, the project ensures the active participation and inclusion of women and marginalized groups. Over 30 months, the project reaches 20,000 final beneficiaries and 4,000 direct beneficiaries—at least 80% women.
