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.

Supporting the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights in Burundi
7392518 P006402001
This project supports the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights in Burundi (OHCHR) to ensure that it maintains its operations in the country from June 2018-March 2019. The on-going political, security, economic and human rights crisis requires a strong OHCHR presence in Burundi. OHCHR-Burundi systematically monitors the institutions and places of detention, essentially all those where violations are known to occur, to document them and recommend preventive measures and remedies to dissuade further abuses from occurring. OHCHR-Burundi’s monitoring activities also serve as a basis for reporting to relevant actors in Geneva and New York in order to inform the ongoing political dialogue on the situation of the country and to inform the diplomatic community through regular briefings organised in the country.
