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.

Global Shield Financing Facility - Institutional Support 2023

Agreement Number:

7447733 P012136001

Duration: from Mar 5, 2023 to Dec 31, 2027
Description:

This grant represents Canada’s long-term institutional support to the Global Shield Financing Facility (GS-FF). The GS-FF uses these funds, along with other donors’ funding, to achieve its mandate. It is not considered core funding as Canada’s contribution will not necessarily be renewed beyond 2026.

The GS-FF is a multi-donor trust fund administered by the World Bank and a financing mechanism of the G7 Global Shield against Climate Risks initiative launched at the 27th United Nations Climate Change Conference in 2022. The GS-FF aims to support vulnerable countries in improving their access to financial protection against climate shocks, disasters and crises, by providing technical advisory services and integrated financial packages to address protection gaps, as well as by building strategic partnerships through enhanced coordination among actors in the global climate and disaster risk finance and insurance sector. Formerly known as the Global Risk Financing Facility (GRiF), the new program is informed by the Global Shield in-country process to foster national ownership and amplify the voices of the most vulnerable, including women and girls.
