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.

P015710001: March 2025 - West Bank and Gaza continue to experience deteriorating humanitarian conditions, with high levels of need in water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), multi-purpose cash assistance (MPCA), nutrition and protection. In 2025, the UN estimated that 3.3 million people (1 million children) require life-saving assistance.

In the West Bank, violence and economic hardship impact over 830,000 people needing health care and WASH support.

In 2026, the UN estimated that 3.62 million people (1.7 million children) require life-saving assistance.
