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.

The project will include a training resource and brochure for NGO's and Indigenous Governments, engagement with the 2SIQTIP community, a strategic plan, action planning, evaluation planning, governance and policy creation. In addition to these critical pieces of the internal structure, Qmunity Camp NWT will build relationships with other NGO's and Indigenous Governments.

Igniting Change on Canada’s Action Plan to End GBV in the Prairies
GV230360
Through this 24-month project, John Humphrey Centre for Peace and Human Rights (JHC) will conduct research that will improve GBV services for at-risk groups by applying an intersectional lens to community-based best practices in prevention and intervention as well as engage community organizations in direct implementation strategies on the Federal Action Plan. The project will address the intensified crisis of Gender Based Violence seen in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic that has increased vulnerability for women and gender diverse populations; has exacerbated issues of racism, ableism, low-income and security that intersect with GBV; has applied increasing pressure to non-profit organizations; and that exposed the harassment of women and 2STQLGBIA+ communities.
To do so, the project will conduct focus groups and interviews, including 1000 human rights-based assessments from community and organizations. JHC will document presentations of best practices and action strategies aligned with the Federal Action Plan and strengthen collaboration among partners working to address GBV. JHC will translate data collected on best practices into tools and resources to support capacity-building among service providers and disseminate those tools and resources through outreach and workshops in order to share information on the research findings.
