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.

Humanitarian Response to Cyclone Freddy – UNICEF 2023
7449789 P012760001
April 2023 - Tropical Cyclone Freddy made landfall in southern Africa in February and March, bringing heavy rains, flooding, and landslides to Mozambique and Malawi. Altogether, it is estimated that more than 3.3 million people in these countries had been affected by Freddy, including more than 700 dead and nearly 850,000 displaced from their homes. The risk of water-borne disease is a key concern given the flooding and ongoing cholera outbreaks.
With GAC’s support, UNICEF addresses the water, sanitation and hygiene, health and nutrition, and protection needs of cyclone-affected people in both Mozambique and Malawi. Project activities include: (1) restoring damaged water and sanitation facilities and distributing essential hygiene supplies; (2) providing access to emergency healthcare services and medical supplies; (3) screening for and treating acute malnutrition; and (4) providing protection services and psychosocial support for at-risk children.
