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.

Funding Facility for Stabilization
7428911 P010140001
The UNDP’s Funding Facility for Stabilization was created at the request of the Government of Iraq in 2015 in order to facilitate the return of displaced Iraqis to areas that had been liberated from Daesh. Its mandate was recently extended until 2023.
The Fund aims to consolidate military gains and rebuild trust among local people for government authorities by demonstrating quick wins in liberated areas. This project would support FFS efforts in “red box” priority locations, where stabilization needs are most urgent and the risk of re-escalating violence highest.
The FFS relies on four primary sets of activities (referred to as ‘Windows’), including: (1) Public works and light infrastructure rehabilitation; (2) Immediate livelihood support for returning IDPs; (3) Capacity support for local governments; and (4) Promoting social cohesion among the target communities.
