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.

Tracking weapon supplies to terrorist groups in Niger and Burkina Faso- phase II
7425562 P009536001
This project aims to reduce the illicit cross-border supply of Small Arms and Light Weapons (SALWs) to armed and terrorist groups in the Sahel region. Conflict Armament Research assists Burkina Faso and Niger’s security institutions to identify, analyze, and document cross-border SALWs and other ammunition flows through those 2 countries. The project aims to improve the capacity of security institutions in Burkina Faso and Niger to collect and share data on illicit trafficking of SALWs. It also seeks to increase awareness of illicit trafficking trends in the Sahel region. Project activities include: (1) training security personnel in Burkina Faso and Niger on documenting, identifying, analyzing, and tracing illicit SALW; and (2) providing SAWLs documentation equipment to security institutions, including evidence tags, hard drives, and cameras.
