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.

Pathways2Equity: Youth-Led, Indigenous-Focussed, Gender- Transformative, Arts-Based Approaches to Challenging Gender Norms in Addressing GBV
NA21745
Building on this, the project will establish the Pathways2Equity Framework (Framework) which will detail steps to creating local and culturally relevant dialogues and knowledge-sharing events, and inform how to use 'dialogues-through-the-arts' approaches to: engage Indigenous boys and men in learning about GBV; dismantle harmful gender stereotypes and norms; and build foundations for establishing safer relationships. A pan-Canadian network will be established through sharing and discussing the Framework among communities with experience in arts-based interventions, and with new sites interested in adopting the Pathways2Equity approach.
