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.

Fellowship - Priority Announcement: Aging
171410
For the Fall 2022 CIHR Fellowship Priority Announcements, the CIHR Institute of Aging (CIHR-IA) will fund up to two fellowship applications relevant to the Institute mandate and one of the following research areas as described below:
• Ageism and Health: to support one research project focusing on the health impact(s) of Ageism. In alignment the CIHR’s Institute of Aging’s priorities and the World Health Organization’s “Global Report on Ageism”, the topic of Ageism, as it relates to older adults and health outcomes, is one that requires more research. Ageism has a serious impact on physical and mental health, as well as social well-being and is a neglected social determinant of health. Ageism can lead to preventable death, and serious physical and mental health problems1. Fellowship research can focus on Ageism as it relates to health outcomes of older adults in alignment with CIHR-IA’s strategic plan.
• Brain Health and Cognitive Impairment in Aging: to support one research project on the topic of brain health and cognitive impairment in aging with a priority given to research projects that focus on historically excluded groups from research including but not limited to those marginalized by gender, racialized minorities, persons with disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ2S+ communities.
