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.

Contribution to the Multi-Partner Trust Fund for Reconciliation, Stabilization, Resilience
7428564 P010192001
This project is Canada’s contribution to the Multi-Partner Trust Fund for Reconciliation, Stabilization, Resilience (RSRTF) in South Sudan. The RSRTF ensures conflict drivers are addressed through highly contextualized, conflict-sensitive, integrated, multi-year resilience and stabilization programming in volatile areas of the country. The RSRTF aims to foster and incentivize consortium programming across the Humanitarian-Development-Peace nexus to deliver area-based programing rooted in locally-led analysis and program design. Peace and Stabilization Operations Program funding supports new area-based programming between 2021 and 2023, including support to existing area-based programs in Unity, Warrap, Western Bahr El Ghazal, Jonglei states and the Greater Pibor Administrative Area. Canada’s contribution supports a small grant window to provide flexible funding for short-term projects to respond to emerging windows of opportunities that promote peacebuilding, stabilization and resilience efforts that may fall outside the planned area-based programs.
