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.

Operating Grant: COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence - Indigenous Health Research
162706
The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to advance knowledge and strategies on how to increase vaccine confidence in populations experiencing conditions of marginalization, Indigenous Peoples and/or populations who have historically been under-vaccinated, including how to address structural, contextual, intersectional and historical barriers to vaccination by:
Addressing knowledge gaps related to understanding the causes and contributing factors to lower vaccination confidence associated with COVID-19, and provide communities, healthcare providers, and public health and health system leaders with actionable evidence to improve vaccine confidence and uptake in clinical and/or community contexts; and
Designing, implementing and/or evaluating promising interventions to increase vaccine confidence, including a focus on which approaches are most effective, in which populations and contexts, and why (implementation science approach).
First Nations, Inuit and Métis including Urban Indigenous communities
For applications addressing vaccine confidence among Indigenous Peoples applicants are encouraged to use a distinctions-based approach and to identify structural, contextual, and historical barriers that explain inequities in uptake and inform strategies for meaningful and culturally safe solutions. Projects must prioritize First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples and communities, including Urban Indigenous communities, in leading their own research, and include an approach based on Indigenous knowledge systems.
Applicants whose proposed research will involve Indigenous Peoples should consult the Tri-Council Policy Statement (TCPS 2 - Chapter 9 Research Involving the First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples of Canada) for guidance on research design.
