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.

Institutional Strengthening for Gender Equity and Equality in Senegal
7428527 P007464001
This project aims to support Senegal’s public institutions to strengthen inclusive governance and ensure progress is made on gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls. In direct connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, this project supports Senegal’s public institutions so they can develop post-crisis public policies and programs that address the needs of women and girls and secure their participation in recovery efforts; it also provides support so the institutions can adopt public performance management approaches that incorporate gender equality.
Project activities include the following: (1) developing training curriculums on analyzing gender equity and equality as part of public performance management and crisis management; (2) implementing solutions to incorporate gender equity and equality into public institutions’ performance management processes, including in times of crisis; (3) setting up a networking and coordination platform for gender units in Senegalese ministries; (4) supporting the information systems of the Agence nationale de la statistique et de la démographie (Senegal’s national statistics and demography agency) and its partners to improve the use of sex-disaggregated data that make it possible to measure gendered impacts in times of crisis and develop strategic solutions; (5) setting up a networking platform for women leaders in Senegal’s public institutions; and (6) educating parliamentarians and public institution executives on gender equity and equality.
This project aims to benefit 3,400 people, mostly women, from Senegal’s public institutions, as well as women leaders and parliamentarians.
