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.

Facilitating inclusive, resilient and sustainable trade
7457519 P012198001
This project aims to help realize the potential of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). It does so by creating safer and more equitable trading conditions for 300,000 small scale cross-border women traders, who are disproportionally affected by discrimination, harassment, and corrupt practices at border crossings. The project supports trade associations and ministries of trade in targeted countries on new border processes and procedures along the Beira trade corridor, which runs from the southern Democratic Republic of Congo to the port of Beira in Mozambique. Project activities include: (1) training on new border processes and coaching of women-led enterprises on business and financial management; (2) designing and implementing mechanisms to address sexual harassment at the borders; and (3) improving existing data collection systems, including developing and disseminating trade-related data disaggregated by sex, age, and ability.
