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.

Gender-Responsive Climate-Smart Agriculture in Nicaragua
7428803 P005771001
The project aims to improve the resilience of women, men, girls and boys to climate change-related food insecurity, especially addressing its gendered impacts. It seeks to: (i) increase the practice of gender-responsive climate-smart agriculture, thus increasing peoples’ access to diverse foods; and (ii) increase women’s participation in decision-making at the local level. The project supports vulnerable women-headed households who are reliant on subsistence farming.
Project activities include: (1) promoting gender-responsive climate-smart agriculture technologies, the use of drought-resistant varieties of beans and maize, community seed banks, and community garden planting to help increase women’s incomes; (2) providing training on entrepreneurship and financial management, market links, gender equality, women’s rights and leadership to women’s groups; and (3) conducting gender sensitization sessions for women and men leaders, youth, and male family members to increase community support for women to participate in decision-making.
The project aims to directly impact 3,345 direct beneficiaries (of which 1,750 women and girls) and 6,500 indirect beneficiaries for a total of nearly 10,000 people reached.
The project is implemented by Casa-Pueblito with partners including Gloria Quintanilla Women’s Cooperative, UCA Tierra y Agua, Community of Jiñocua, and Hogar Luceros del Amanecer.
