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.

Bolstering Reconstruction in Iraq through Development, Growth and Employment (BRIDGE)
7375460 P002007001
The project aims to recognize the urgent need for short-term stabilization in Iraq by supporting the transition into new livelihoods for conflict-affected male and female youth and adult women. Thus, the project focuses on improving their technical and vocational trade skills. Project activities include: (1) facilitating models of effective technical and vocational education training (TVET) practice, by supporting up to 16 vocational training centres (VTCs) to deliver market-relevant, competency-based, gender-responsive vocational training to up to 3,000 youth and women; (2) providing flexible technical assistance and capacity development support to the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, the Governorates, VTCs and other key stakeholders to implement stronger vocational training and services for students, such as career and guidance counselling; (3) strengthening linkages with the private sector to ensure that training programs are relevant to labor market needs, and to provide internships and employment opportunities for youth and women graduates.
