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.

Community Engagement to Address and Prevent Gender-Based Violence
NA20432
This 3-month project will develop a framework and a consultation toolkit to support effective and coordinated roundtable sessions to ensure input received during the community engagement contributes effectively to learning more about the specific GBV needs of diverse communities using an intersectional lens. These roundtables will result in recommendations for clear, concrete actions to address and prevent GBV in communities across Canada.
YWCA Canada will distribute funding directly to approximately 60 organizations (up to $40K each). The core organizations would include be members of the Blueprint Coalition and the GBV Advisory Council. In addition to these core members, YWCA Canada will recommend and include other organizations to address identified gaps and ensure representation across the country.
Finally, YWCA Canada will prepare and submit an overall report summarizing community engagement reports and recommended actions.

Expert Engagement to Address and Prevent Gender-Based Violence
NA20431
This three and a half months project will create working groups, corresponding to four of the five pillars of the GBV National Action Plan At-A-Glance (Support for survivors and their families; Prevention; Promotion of responsive legal and justice systems; and Social infrastructure and enabling environment), to lead and coordinate sector strategic input while ensuring representation across the country.
Women’s Shelter Canada (WSC) will ensure that the working groups are provided a common framework and tools to help guide strategic discussions. The working groups will conduct research to ensure that evidence-based recommendations are provided in their individual pillar-based reports. WSC will prepare a final report summarizing the four reports and strategic recommendations for action.
Work specifically on Support for Indigenous-led approaches and responses will be addressed through engagement sessions with Indigenous leaders, partners, communities and the Indigenous Women’s Circle.
