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 our Capacity to Address and Prevent GBV in the lives of our Indigenous Populations
SO220043
Through this 36-month project, Nisohkamakewin Foundation will increase its ability to prevent and address gender-based violence (GBV) against Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ individuals, with a focus on individuals experiencing domestic violence in Spruce Grove, Alberta.
This will be achieved through community consultations with those who have lived experience of GBV; by providing professional training related to GBV for staff and board members; by developing and implementing a holistic organizational review of policy on equity and inclusion through development and modification of a curriculum; and the provision of community and stakeholder information sessions related to GBV+ experienced by Indigenous women and girls. An evaluation tool will also be developed to ensure project objectives are being met, and knowledge gained in this project will be shared within the community to create and strengthen partnerships with other service providers to build their capacity in turn.
By the end of this project, Nisohkamakewin Foundation will have strengthened their own capacity to prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people with a focus on individuals leaving situations of domestic violence. "

World Food Programme - Famine Response 2023
7446871 P012092001
September 2022 - The World Food Programme (WFP) is the United Nations’ frontline agency in the fight against hunger. It responds to emergencies, saves lives by quickly getting food assistance (cash or in-kind) to vulnerable food-insecure populations and helps prevent hunger. As the global lead agency for logistics and emergency telecommunications, WFP plays a major role in providing common services for the humanitarian community. It transports humanitarian workers, carries light cargo for humanitarian agencies, and carries emergency medical and security evacuations. This project operates in Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Kenya, Haiti, Honduras, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. It also includes support for WFP’s Immediate Response Account.
With GAC’s support, WFP provides targeted food assistance to vulnerable populations to reduce acute malnutrition and food insecurity and protect livelihoods. Project activities include: (1) distributing food and cash-based transfer; (2) providing supplementary feeding for children under the age of five years and pregnant and lactating women; (3) providing logistical support and enabling access to the most remote and challenging locations.
