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.

Response to Conflict-Related Sexual Violence in Tigray, Afar, Amhara, and Benishangul Gumuz
7439104 P010660001
Gaps in services include women and girl’s safe spaces (WGSS) for increasing numbers of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Shire and Mekelle, and mobile medical teams offering reproductive health care, community outreach, and initial clinical response and referral for survivors of GBV.
This UNFPA project proposes to addresses gaps in response, assist in rebuilding government and local capacity for survivors of sexual violence, and increase GBV awareness and risk mitigation through protection measures. Essential Sexual Health and Reproductive services would reduce maternal morbidity and mortality, and serve as an entry point for GBV education and services.
The project would target locations in Tigray including Mekelle, Agidrat, Adwa, Axum, Shire, Maychew, Humera, Alemata, and areas in Afar and Amhara hosting IDPs as a result of the Tigray conflict.
