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.

Successful Initiatives to Address Intimate Partner Violence
against Women and Girls in Alberta's Black Communities
AB21777
This 25-month project will develop, implement, and test a culturally appropriate, community-based intimate partner violence (IPV) prevention-focused service delivery and policy framework to effectively address the root causes of gender-based violence within Alberta’s Black and African communities. The Pan African Collaboration for Excellence (PACE) with the University of Alberta will achieve this through the collaborative, equitable, and participatory development of a comprehensive IPV prevention framework; the development of a core resource kit to support implementation of the framework; adapting core material into a diversified resource kit for community-based service and program providers to implement the framework; and the continuous monitoring and evaluation of the initiative.
At the end of the project, the University of Alberta will have developed a promising practice that produced and analyzed data to inform inclusive policies and strategies; engaged Black women and girls as decision-makers and agents of change; addressed and disrupted racialized and stereotypical narratives about IPV in Alberta’s Black communities; and strengthened networks and collaborations for IPV prevention within and outside Black communities.
