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.

Increasing WMST’s Capacity as a National Decolonizing Women’s Organization
SO220005
Through this 36-month project, Women’s Studies will increase their organizational capacity to be able to provide Gender-based Violence prevention programming for Indigenous women and girls. This will be achieved through three project components: establishing and maintaining organizational leadership; increasing the ability to ensure ongoing funding and managing funds effectively; and researching, developing and implementing best practices for GBV decolonization.
This project will allow for Women’s Studies to advance the grassroots voices and priorities of Indigenous women and girls to support real and meaningful systemic changes in Canada. Organizational capacity will be increased by strengthening and maintaining the leadership of the Board of Directors and staff through training and knowledge-building activities. These activities will inform the updated bylaws, policies and decision-making practices to ensure: their compliance with a decolonizing GBV+ analysis; the creation of a fundraising department and committee (including volunteers); and the review of best practices of Canadian women’s and Indigenous women’s GBV organizations in order to compile and implement best organizational practices for WMST as a decolonizing GBV organization.
