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.

Iraq Crisis - Shelter and Protection Response - Danish Refugee Council 2020-2021
7417784 P008556001
January 2020 – In 2020, there are an estimated 4.1 million Iraqis in need of humanitarian assistance, of which 1.77 million are in acute need. Out of the 6 million people displaced during the conflict against Daesh, more than 1.4 million people remain internally displaced. Those directly affected by the conflict against Daesh, particularly those who were displaced and whose lives and livelihoods were uprooted and destroyed, continue to require humanitarian assistance to meet their basic needs.
With GAC’s support, the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) is implementing a cross-sectoral shelter and housing, land and property (HLP) intervention that aims to contribute to addressing critical shelter vulnerabilities, targeting up to 11,000 conflict- and displacement-affected individuals, experiencing the most acute vulnerabilities, particularly women-headed households. Project activities include: (1) repairing or rehabilitating critical war-damaged shelters; (2) providing legal assistance with accessing civil documentation and HLP rights; and (3) repairing and rehabilitating basic community infrastructure in areas severely affected by the conflict.
