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.

Empowering women and girls in the informal economy in Honduras
7410389 P005963001
The project aims to impower women and girls between the ages of 15 and 40 years old working in the informal economy sector and living in the urban and peri-urban areas of the departments of Cortés, Atlantida and Francisco Morazan, Honduras.
The project also works to reduce poverty and increase the well-being of the targeted women, thereby strengthening their social and political power. This ultimately contributes to reducing poverty for their families, communities and the general population.
Project activities include: (1) providing training to approximately 3,000 informal economy workers (of which 80% are women) on their basic rights, including the reproductive and sexual rights of women and girls; (2) organizing a three-party seminar to advance legislative bills to better support and protect the women and men working in the informal economy sector; (3) providing leadership and communications training to 2,500 women and girls in the informal economy sector; and (4) providing training to trainers on strategies to empower women and girls of 150 officials from member and affiliated groups of the Federación de Organizaciones de Trabajadores y Trabajadoras del Sector Social de la Economía de Honduras (FOTSSIEH).
