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.

Education for Refugees and Host Community
7448307 P010739001
This project strengthens education systems and infrastructure, and improves access to basic education under the Education Cannot Wait’s 2022 to 2024 Multi-year Resilience Programme for Bangladesh. The project aims to improve access to quality, safe, and inclusive learning opportunities for girls and boys aged three to 18 in Rohingya refugee camps and host communities in Cox’s Bazar district. Also, this project seeks to strengthen the education system and infrastructure to help reach more than 350,000 refugee children and youth. This includes children and adolescents without access to education, and out-of-school children and youth in the host communities impacted by the refugee influx and the pandemic.
Project activities include: (1) improving access to safe and protective educational opportunities for girls and boys; (2) increasing the number of safe, accessible, and inclusive learning centers, catch-up classes, and alternative learning approaches. It seeks this through facilitated access to required learning and teaching materials, an expanded pool of qualified teachers, and enhanced community-level planning, sensitization, and involvement; (3) enhancing gender and disability-inclusive, safe, and child-friendly teaching and learning environment for girls and boys. It seeks this through improving the capacity for teachers, communities, and key stakeholders of gender equity, inclusion, and child protection; (4) improving the quality of learning for girls and boys through strengthened teaching competencies and supporting a learning environment. This promotes learner well-being while addressing trauma-related impacts and barriers, improving and contextualizing learning materials, including the Myanmar curriculum; and (5) strengthening education systems to provide quality, safe, and equitable education. It does so by improving processes to ensure evidence-based decision-making. This also includes utilizing learner data for systematic analysis and planning, and introducing gender and disability-inclusive school monitoring and reporting.
