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.

Todas Avante (All Ahead)
7454560 P010552001
The Todas Avante project aims to increase the realization of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of in and out-of-school adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) aged 10-24 years in Nampula, Mozambique. It will build upon results and lessons learned from the GAC-funded Healthy Women and Girls project implemented by Plan Canada (P001262); and will adopt a comprehensive approach addressing three core pillars: demand, supply and accountability. Demand-side activities will focus on AGYW’s individual and collective agency to exercise their SRHR (inc., mentoring and training AGYW, and training community leaders and initiation rites practitioners). Supply-side activities will be done through health systems strengthening (inc., rehabilitation/construction of 8 health facilities/SAAJs and training healthcare workers on SRH, safe abortion and post-abortion care, sexual and gender-based violence and mental health). To improve accountability, the project will target 8 local organizations (inc., women’s rights and LGBTQIA+ organizations) with capacity building, networking, and influencing opportunities (inc. conducting evidence-based advocacy on GE and SRHR). The initiative will directly benefit 89,340 people comprising 55,537 AGYW aged 10-24 years, and 10,949 adolescent boys and young men.
