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.

Inclusive management of the mining fund for peace and stabilization in Burkina Faso
7457513 P012452001
This project aims, on the one hand, to help target communities make greater use of the mining fund for local development (FMDL) to improve the abilities of communities and organizations to implement local initiatives focused on peace and security. On the other hand, the project seeks to strengthen the capacities and involvement of women, girls and marginalized groups in local initiatives. The goal is to encourage their leadership and foster the development of inclusive and equitable initiatives within communities. By strengthening the capacities of civil society organizations, the project aims to promote the participation of local communities in the management of mining resources. This seeks to ensure that the interests of local communities are taken into account, helping to reduce frustrations and tensions that fuel violence, conflict and illegal trade within the communities.
Project activities include: (1) providing training to target communities and organizations in planning, managing and monitoring local peace and security initiatives; (2) providing technical support, coaching and assistance to target communities and organizations in implementing, managing and evaluating local initiatives; (3) organizing thematic workshops on peace and security, gender equality, conflict sensitivity and inclusive local development; (4) organizing and promoting inclusive dialogue to address peace and security issues within the communities; and (5) conducting information and awareness-raising campaigns on the governance, operation and terms of access of the mining fund for the benefit of the communities.
