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.

Africa Fertilizer Financing Mechanism
7455158 P012793001
This project aims to increase smallholder farmers’ sustainable agricultural productivity and incomes, including women and youth in Africa. It seeks this through the Africa Fertilizer Financing Mechanism, a special fund established by the African Union`s member states and managed by the African Development Bank.
Project activities include: (1) providing financial products and support (i.e., credit guarantees) to targeted small and medium enterprises. It does so to improve smallholder farmers’ access to fertilizers and other critical inputs, particularly for food crops; (2) supporting the advocacy and development of policy reforms to enhance fertilizers availability and productivity and soil health; and (3) facilitating smallholder farmers (including women and youth) access to inputs, technical assistance, and extension services to improve food production, revenues and soil health.
The project aims to increase the productivity of three selected strategic commodities by a minimum of 30%. It does so through adopting better fertilization and plant health plans. The project seeks to reach a minimum of 800,000 farmers (at least 40% women).
