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.

Responsible Reporting of Gender Based Violence and Gendered Issues in the Media
GV21858
This 30-month project will develop and implement training for journalists on the responsible reporting of gender-based violence (GBV) and gendered issues in the media to address the root causes of gender-based violence. Women's Place (St. Catharines & District) Inc. will achieve this by performing baseline research of local media reporting on GBV; consulting and interviewing journalists, people with GBV lived experience, equity seeking groups (LGBTQIA2+, Indigenous, and racialized people, people with disabilities, migrants and newcomers) and experts on GBV; developing a training package which will include a journalist guide and a documentary; delivering training to target groups; performing pre and post-training interviews as well as follow-up research of local media reporting on GBV to determine training effectiveness.
At the end of the project, the organization will have developed a promising practice that aims to promote gender equality and diversity in news media content; enhance news media capacity to appropriately and responsibly address GBV; and increase the representation of women and gender-diverse people as experts and leaders in news media.
This project will engage with consultants to conduct research on region-specific gender representation and gender-based issue reporting in Niagara. This organization serves the North-west area of the region, their sister shelter, Women's Place of South Niagara, serves the South-east area of the region and will be integral in the delivery of the program to all media outlets in Niagara.
