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.

Data for change II: Improve education outcomes for refugees girls and adolescent girls
7447158 P011082001
The project aims to improve education outcomes for refugee, internally displaced, or host community girls and adolescent girls in humanitarian contexts, post-conflict, and host countries. The project does so by focusing on violence that might prevent their ability to access safe and quality education. Aligned with Data for Change I, this next phase of work expects to achieve this outcome by improving the use of evidence-based and solution-driven information to provide accessible, high-quality, gender-responsive and innovative formal and non-formal education for refugee, internally displaced, and host community girls by governments, donors, and other key stakeholders. The project’s activities prioritize countries with refugee and other forcibly displaced populations, including Uganda, Kenya, Honduras and Colombia. At the regional level, it intervenes in Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa.
Project activities include: (1) providing technical assistance for implementing the Violence Against Children Survey for Humanitarian Settings in Uganda, with special attention to sexual and gender-based violence and barriers to girls’ education; (2) disseminating the results of the Violence Against Children Survey for Humanitarian Settings among key stakeholders in the humanitarian sector; (3) providing technical assistance to the government of Honduras and Colombia to implement strategies and local action plans to prevent and respond to violence against girls and adolescent girls, focusing on the most vulnerable (e.g., internally displaced populations, refugees, and families affected by migration); (4) facilitating workshops on data-informed activism to support advocacy on issues surrounding sexual and gender-based violence, education and girls empowerment with adolescent girls and young women from selected countries in Latin America; (5) piloting school-based sexual and gender-based violence prevention and response interventions in selected districts in Kenya; and (6) supporting global and regional advocacy efforts in Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa to advance local advocacy efforts on girls' empowerment, education and school-related gender-based violence.
