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.

Strengthening Gender-Responsive Governance Latin American Parliaments
7440761 P010381001
This project aims to foster gender responsive parliamentary governance across 19 Latin American countries through regional network building, technical assistance, and capacity development of parliamentarians, parliamentary staff, women’s advocates and civil society. The project seeks to dismantle political, structural and legislative barriers to gender equality and women’s empowerment.
The project implements activities to strengthen the capacities of parliamentary stakeholders for national and collaborative gender-sensitive actions across a range of sustainable development issues, including climate change, which are not often seen as gender issues. By tackling existing challenges to women’s meaningful participation in parliamentary action, the project supports advocacy to fight and adapt to climate change in the region.
