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.

Agency and Action to Prevent GBV in STEM Workplaces
GV230312
Through this 27-month project, the Society for Canadian Women in Science and Technology (SCWIST) will scale multiple promising practices which include engaging men to address hierarchical power issues, guided discussions to build empathy and cognitive-behavioural changes to strengthen the GBV sector.
To do so, the project will address historical systems within STEM organizations that were inherited, to modify the mind-sets that sustain them, and to create environments where the spectrum of GBV is recognized and not tolerated. This project will address intersectional needs of equity-deserving groups including youth, Indigenous, Black, racialized, newcomers, and 2SLGBTQ+ across Canada. It will scale to STEM companies, professional associations and will enhance STEM professions across Canada by providing workplace training, processes, policies, and knowledge. The project will result in attitudinal and behavioural changes on the individual level, within teams and across organizations at all levels.
