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.

Strengthening Investments in Gender Responsive Climate Adaptation
7448878 P010611001
The strengthening Investments in Gender Responsive Climate Adaptation (SIGRA) initiative seeks to advance climate action, food security, and inclusive governance in Ghana. This project aims to improve the resilience of Ghanaian citizens, particularly women, girls, and vulnerable groups, through investing in inclusive and gender-responsive climate adaptation initiatives.
The project seeks to strengthen the enabling environment at the national and local levels while supporting women’s voices and involvement in policy decisions concerning climate change adaptation. Specifically, the project provides technical assistance and support to strengthen governance and national systems with key central level Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDA) while providing direct grants to five Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) funding local gender-responsive climate adaptation projects. The initiative further supports regional government stakeholders in the Northern and Volta regions. It strengthens the ability of targeted MMDAs to plan, implement, and report on climate adaptation initiatives. The project also strengthens women-led civil society organizations’ (CSOs) participation, voice and influence in government decision-making.
Project activities include: (1) supporting Ghanaian ministries and agencies with technical assistance on gender-responsive budgeting and climate adaptation; (2) providing technical assistance to MMDAs on climate risk assessments and formulating gender-responsive climate adaptation initiatives; (3) providing funds to MMDAs for gender-responsive climate adaptation plans; (4) supporting women-led CSOs to conduct outreach, awareness raising, and advocacy on gender equality and climate adaptation at the MMDA and national levels; and (5) supporting organizational development of regional structures of the Ministry of Local Government, Decentralization and Rural Development, Environmental Protection Agency, and the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection. The SIGRA project directly benefits 627,000 Ghanaian citizens (51% women) and up to 5 million people in the Northern and Volta regions.
