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.

Circles of Women: A Prevention EmergPromising Practice in the Lives of Immigrant and Migrant Women

Agreement Number:

GV230273

Duration: from Aug 30, 2023 to Mar 31, 2027
Description:

Through this 43-month project, Immigrant Migrant Women Association of Halifax (IMWAH) will develop and put in place an emergent promising practice to strengthen the GBV sector. It will address equality of access to information, services, and supports for im∕migrant women to improve their status in Canada's economic, social, and political life and prevent abuse and GBV. The project will foster a collaborative multi-stakeholder approach among service providers in the GBV sector and women's cultural organizations; strengthen an intersectional service and prevention approach that is responsive to im/migrant women’s experience of GBV. It will also work with im∕migrant women and girls to improve their sense of belonging and prevent instances of abuse and GBV in their lives, increasing their knowledge of and access to services available to them to prevent abuse and family violence. To do so, the project will include the development of the emergent promising practice, development of resources and implementation of a peer support group and deliver information sessions to key stakeholders.

An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of this project and the emergent promising practice. IMWAH will share this Promising Practice Report with the GBV Knowledge Centre, the Nova Scotia Domestic Violence Resource Centre, as well as through knowledge dissemination activities, such as conferences and symposiums, so that other organizations may replicate it or expand upon it.

With the supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, IMWAH will further develop, test, and refine their promising practice through a formalized advisory committee, attendance at a conference to share project findings, and through the development and delivery of placed-based learning sessions for community organizations, peer-led conversation groups, and a legal information seminar for service providers.
