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.

Indigenous Innovation Initiative – Women, Girls and 2SLGBTTQQIA Program (I3-WG2S)
NA190157
The Project I3 – WG2S will advance indigenous gender equality for women and girls across social and economic conditions by supporting the creation of a succession of transformative innovation and catalyzing large scale system changes to improve lives in Indigenous communities across Canada, allowing Indigenous innovators from the I3-WG2S project to achieve their fullest potential and share in Canada’s prosperity. Indigenous gender equality refers to the United Nations Briefing Note No. 1 on Gender and Indigenous Peoples that recognizes that there are even further gender influenced gaps for Indigenous peoples.
The project will fund innovative projects to assist Indigenous women in Canada to overcome the barriers they are facing in their communities. The I3-WG2S will respond to the technical and financial needs, as well as other barriers faced by Indigenous women and girls, including 2SLGBTTQQIA people, and in particular innovators and entrepreneurs, through three tiers of support/components. The Capacity Building Component and the Seed Component, using WAGE’s contribution of up to $8,744,582 in matched funding toward 50% of the total project cost; and the Transition-to-Scale Component, using Grand Challenges Canada’s matched funding of up to $8,744,582 toward the total project cost.
Grand Challenges Canada will ensure that WAGE’s contribution of up to $8,744,582 to the Project will focus specifically on the advancement of Indigenous gender equality for women and girls across social and economic conditions.
