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.

Voices In the Art (VIA)
GV230336
Through this 31-month project, The Immigrant Education Society (TIES) will develop and put in place the Arts-Based Engagement Ethnography (ABEE) to strengthen the GBV sector. It will address the disproportionate rate of GBV among newcomer LGBTQIA2S+ youth, considering the perspectives of the youth themselves. TIES will engage local newcomer LGBTQIA2S+ youth in Calgary by identifying and connecting with several community-based organizations and groups.The project will investigate the relationships and communication between newcomer LGBTQIA2S+ youth and their families, peers, and friends, and develop an arts-based tool to support youth with intersecting identities in navigating toward stronger, more affirming relationships. The project will involve newcomer 2SLGBTQAI+ youth to visually display their experiences which will be presented at an exhibition at the end of the project. TIES will research, develop, and create tools to implement this promising practice safely in Calgary, AB. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the promising practice. TIES will produce a final report document and publish two peer-reviewed scholarly articles that they will share with other organizations and WAGE’s GBV Learning Centre to disseminate their findings to be replicated or expanded upon in the future.
