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.

Development of New Composite/Functionalized Cathodes for Bio-Electrochemical Conversion of CO2 to CH4
948442
The project will focus on the characterization of pathways leading to CH4 production from CO2 and improvement of the kinetics of the conversion reaction by modifying (functionalizing) carbon-based cathodes with (i) nanostructured non-noble metal electrocatalysts, and (ii) with organic functional groups.

AI based shape optimization
948443
Recent advances in machine learning allow for a data-driven solution: a neural network can be trained using pre-computed simulation data and then use the neural network as an online simulator. This project investigates geometric techniques for representing and processing shape data for machine learning and computing optimal shapes for design.
