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.

This project works to enhance the human rights of women and girls through media development in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Tunisia, and the Syrian diaspora in the Middle East. Project activities include: (1) providing training/mentoring to journalists, journalism students and media professionals (women and men) on gender sensitive reporting, through human rights journalism; (2) providing training/mentoring to managers (women and men) on best practices to achieve/manage gender balanced newsrooms, which support human rights reporting and gender equality; and (3) providing training/mentoring to women’s human rights organizations on media relations, engagement and collaboration.
The project expects to target 1,720 journalists, journalism students, and media managers (of which 50% women), and 320 civil society representatives (of which 50% are women). The project’s media partners also expects to reach a targeted audience of 1.5 million people.
