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.

Reclaiming Our Spirit: An Indigenous exploration gender-based violence and criminalization
GV230352
Through this 29-month project, the Elizabeth Fry Society of Calgary will conduct research that will help improve GBV services for Indigenous women. It will identify and address the intricate systems that influence inequality and increase susceptibility to GBV for Indigenous women who also experience or are at risk of criminalization. In addition, this project will study the systemic consequences of GBV that emerge because of existing structural, physical, and socio-cultural barriers that heighten the vulnerability of Indigenous women to negative outcomes such as homelessness, poverty, and criminalization. To do so, this project will employ an Indigenous research methodology, receive the guidance of Knowledge Holders and Elders through regular discussions and meetings, and create Advisory Circles of women with lived experience, which will guide and inform recommendations for the restructuring and decolonizing of supports and services for Indigenous women. The Elizabeth Fry Society of Calgary will also hold a community photo exhibit, coordinate a community validation ceremony and community sharing circles, to share findings, as well as compile an in-depth final written report, which will be shared through presentations, conversations, and a publication.

Intersections of Gender-based Violence and the Child Protection System
GV230351
Through this 30-month project, West Coast LEAF will conduct research that will help improve GBV services for at-risk groups. It will address the knowledge gap regarding the intersections between BC's child welfare system and experiences of GBV, specifically for racialized, newcomer, and/or disabled women and 2SLBTQIA+ people. To do so, the project will conduct community-based research with a diverse network of community partnerships to support law and policy development to address issues in the child welfare system to align with community-identified priorities, needs and practices. West Coast LEAF will develop a knowledge sharing and mobilization plan to share information on the research findings.
