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.

Improving Access to Agricultural Insurance in the Casamance Region in Senegal
7424358 P007285001
The project seeks to support the economic empowerment and resilience of women farmers in Senegal’s Casamance region by improving their access to agricultural insurance as a way to mitigate the impact of climate change. The project focuses on the availability of financial products and services tailored to the needs of women farmers and enhances their ability to access and use them.
Project activities include : (1) Providing training and support to women farmers so they can access and use financial products and services, including agricultural insurance; (2) building the capacity of grassroots cooperatives and regional financial institutions to tailor their range of products and services to the needs of women; (3) developing and implementing an innovative business model for distributing agricultural insurance to women and women’s groups; and (4) building the capacity of the Compagnie Nationale d’Assurance Agricole du Sénégal (CNAAS, Senegal’s national agricultural insurance company) and national financial institutions to develop and provide products and services tailored to the specific needs of women.
The project is being delivered by SOCODEVI with the help of two local partners, the CNAAS and the Organisation de Formation et d’Appui au Développement (OFAD/Nafoore).
The indirect beneficiaries are estimated at approximately 900,000 people making up the population of all the households to which the direct beneficiaries belong, who represent 7,000 women members of 150 agricultural groups (GFVA) in the rural regions of Casamance.
