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.

Gendered Analysis of the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index
7426600 P008993001
The project aims to strengthen the evidence base on how women and girls experience poverty differently than men and boys by conducting a gender-based analysis of the data underpinning the global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI). The MPI is a measure of acute multidimensional poverty developed by the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative and included as part of the United Nations Human Development Report since 2010.
Project activities include: (1) conducting a gender-based analysis of the MPI indicators where the data permits, specifically, adult nutrition, years of schooling, and child school attendance; (2) publishing data tables and methodological notes from this analysis to equip researchers and national offices of statistics to replicate this methodology in their local contexts; and (3) developing communications materials, including country-specific briefs and presentations, to discuss the findings with national policymakers.
