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.

Rural Women Cultivating Change in Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania
7430626 P009374001
The project works at the intersection of women’s rights and climate adaptation. The project aims to empower women and encourage gender-transformative change, through the use of agroecological approaches that encourage equitable production, resource management, and market access. Working in collaboration with women’s rights organizations (WROs) and agricultural-based organizations, support is provided to advance climate adaptation, increase food security, enhance gender equality, reduce sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV), and improve livelihoods for rural women. The project targets remote rural regions of Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania, where farming is the primary occupation and principal use of women’s labour. The specific geographic areas that the project will target include North Wollo Zone of Amhara Region in Ethiopia; Baringo, Nakuru, Kakamega, Laikipia and Kitui counties in Kenya; and Morogoro and Gairo District Councils of Morogoro, Babati and Mbulu District Councils of Manyara and Mwanga and Same District Councils of Kilimanjaro Regions in Tanzania. These regions are adversely impacted by climate change; food insecurity; patriarchal norms and practices; and high rates of SGBV that severely limit women’s household and community leadership roles and affect their agricultural practices. This project contributes to Canada’s commitments to climate adaptation, gender equality, women’s empowerment, sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV), and sub-Saharan Africa.
