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 supremely deep trans-Neptunian object survey: A critical test of planet formation models
25JWGO4A16
This project will use JWST/NIRCam to perform the deepest survey for Kuiper Belt Objects ever. This will result in a Kuiper Belt size distribution down to ~1 km in size, the size of impactor responsible for the craters on Pluto. By tying the size distribution to the cratering record, this survey will provide extremely strong constraints on the formation processes experienced by Kuiper Belt Objects, and provide a direct measure of the timescale of rheological processes occurring on the surfaces of Pluto and Charon.

Combining Emission and Transmission Spectroscopy to reveal Exo-Neptune Aerosols Chemistry and Formation
25JWGO4B03
This project aims to perform a full panchromatic characterization of the warm Neptune TOI-674 b (640 K) using JWST, observing both transmission (0.6 – 12 µm) and emission (3 – 5.2 µm) spectra. TOI-674 b is uniquely suited for this dual-geometry study, enabling constraints on aerosol properties, atmospheric chemistry, and thermal structure. The results will break cloud-metallicity degeneracies, probe CH4/CO chemistry, assess potential tidal heating, and reveal formation and migration pathways, establishing TOI-674 b as a benchmark for warm Neptune atmospheres.

Jenggala: Youth Networks for a Sustainable Gender Movement & Climate Action
7474688 P016042001
This project aims to enhance the resilience of marginalized rural youth, especially young women, in five districts across the climate vulnerable East Nusa Tenggara and South Sulawesi provinces in Indonesia. It will directly benefit 4,000 youth aged 18-29 (70% women), including 160 youth farmers with disabilities (aged 18-35) and engage approximately 415 intermediaries including community leaders, local government stakeholders and local protection actors. Project activities include: (1) conducting gender-transformative life skills training with rural youth; (2) equipping young farmers with climate-smart agriculture technologies, entrepreneurial skills and small grants to implement innovative business ideas; (3) working with local government and youth farmers to advocate for inclusive policies for effective climate action.
