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.

Caribbean Organizations for a Resilient Environment (CORE)
7448112 P011079001
The Caribbean Organizations for a Resilient Environment project aims to increase the resilience of Caribbean Communities to the impacts of climate change. The Caribbean Biodiversity Fund works with the National Conservation Trust Funds in eight countries to implement local, nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation and mitigation. The project provides small- to medium-sized grants to environmental and women-rights organizations that reach key ecosystems such as mangroves, coral reefs and forests, and increase ecosystem services that support Caribbean communities’ resilience to climate change. The project also addresses institutional capacity gaps within regional and local organizations to ensure the sustainability of community-driven climate resilience initiatives. At the same time, the project creates and strengthens innovative financing mechanisms for more sustainable climate financing in the region.
