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.

Leveraging Digital Monitoring for Enhanced Anti-Cyber Crime and Counter-Terrorism in Bangladesh

Agreement Number:

7456047 P013347001

Duration: from Jan 2, 2024 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

The primary objective of this project is to strengthen Bangladesh's ability to anticipate, monitor and mitigate the risk of online extremist activities aimed at disrupting societal trust and security. In the context of Bangladesh's 2024 elections and the heightened threat of cyber activities from extremist factions, the intent is to monitor violent extremist activity in the democratic process and their aftermath from digital disruptions. Through an in-house Digital Harms Monitor (DHM), SecDev will produce structured open-source intelligence (OSINT) products — including alerts, analyses, and reports — to facilitate early detection and promote heightened situational awareness concerning digital violent extremist and cyber crime activities in Bangladesh. SecDev will leverage this reporting for the purposes of mentoring and capacity-building of civil society and select law enforcement entities. This direct capacity-building will aim to enhance understanding of OSINT products and how to make use of their insights, within an human rights and gender-informed framework.
