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.

Developing whole-learner frameworks in Indigenous knowledges and perspectives in space science and astronomy
25EDIQUE07
With this A0 we will continue our development of whole-learner supports to support participation in research activities by Indigenous undergraduate and graduate learners by implementing new whole-learner-support oriented programming and activities that we have sandboxed over the past couple of years. This will occur principally in the context of summer research internships in Space Science funded in part through NSERC's USRA program. We are confident that this will lead to improving retention and graduation success of undergraduate STEM learners, and improving recruitment into STEM postgraduate programs and careers relevant to the Space sector. This is the key to achieving our long-term objective.
In the context of this proposal, "whole-learner support" refers to supporting and satisfying the 4 spheres of Indigenous education: Intellectual (the mind), physical (the body), emotional (the heart), and spiritual (the spirit). We enter into this research with the understanding that academic and career success demands balance, and missing support in one or more of these spheres may limit the ability of learners to thrive academically and may therefore limit potential career opportunities in the Space sector.
