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.

International Bureau For Children’s Right - Volunteer Cooperation 2020-2027
7419804 P007298001
In addition to increasing the participation of Canadians in international development and key global children's rights issues, this project aims to enhance the performance of 32 developing country partners in implementing more inclusive and innovative international development initiatives that advance gender equality. The project also aims to strengthen the participation of children, especially girls, through increased protection of their rights and to build the capacity of the many partner civil society organizations and state institutions so that they are better equipped to promote and enforce the rights of girls and boys by promoting their active participation.
Project activities include: (1) providing training to volunteers on child rights, gender equality, as well as on the development and strengthening of partners' tools, policies and procedures to strengthen protection and rehabilitation services for particularly vulnerable children (e.g. new working tools for the integration of children's rights into police interventions with children in conflict with the law, etc.); (2) producing and/or improving practices among partners in the effective promotion of girls' and boys' rights and in advocacy for improved protection of children's rights (e. g. provide legal advice to support prevention, protection and policy advocacy that helps reduce the impacts of armed conflict on children, adolescents and young girls); (3) raising awareness and popularize child rights and gender equality for vulnerable communities (e.g., provide training to practitioners working with incarcerated youth on child rights and gender equality, and develop new work tools for them); (4) developing awareness materials and share experiences of Canadian volunteers to raise awareness among the Canadian public about girls' rights and gender equality; and (5) establishing a social laboratory for the exchange of practices and knowledge at the national, regional and international levels.
