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.

Lebanon Matching Fund - Humanitarian Coalition 2020
7423051 P009721001
On August 4, 2020, a massive explosion occurred in Lebanon’s capital, Beirut, killing at least 180 people and injuring over 6,500. The explosion took place in the city’s port, which is the largest in the country and the main point of entry for all of Lebanon’s imports, including food and other basic items. The explosion has led to significant disruptions and damage to infrastructure in the Beirut area. The event occurred while Lebanon was already facing a multi-faceted crisis and vulnerable people having limited coping capacities. Priority needs include food assistance, multi-purpose cash and healthcare.
An effective and timely humanitarian assistance response is essential to address the immediate life-saving needs of the affected people. In order to respond to this crisis, Global Affairs Canada launched the Lebanon Matching Fund in partnership with the Humanitarian Coalition and its members. Through this mechanism, the Government of Canada is matching the eligible donations made to the Humanitarian Coalition and its members, up to $8 million.
The funds are used by Humanitarian Coalition members to deliver life-saving assistance to those most in need such as emergency food, cash, health, protection, shelter, and water, sanitation and hygiene services.

7423046 P009075001
This project provides support to the 2020 and 2021 Canadian Conference on Global Health (CCGH), which aims to create a vibrant global health community contributing to health for all. Organized annually by the Canadian Society for International Health, the CCGH provides a platform for members of the global health community from Canada and internationally, including low- and middle-income countries, to share results, lessons learned, knowledge translation and best practices. The CCGH attracts researchers, policy-makers, civil society representatives and students from a broad spectrum of backgrounds and interests. The conference’s annual themes and sub-themes reflect global health priorities and Canadian international assistance objectives. The CCGH, taking place virtually from October 19 to 22, 2020, expects to directly benefit around 500 people. The CCGH’s 2020 theme is “Global Health in a Changing Climate” with environment and climate change, health systems and the burden of disease, innovating for health, and changing politics as subthemes. The theme and exact dates of the 2021 CCGH are determined at a later date.
