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.

1001 Nights Civic and peace education Program in the Philippines
7419368 P008592001
To the Government of the Philippines, and with the full support of the Department of Education (DepEd), the 1001 Nights Program is seen as a powerful tool to prevent violent extremism, build social cohesion, gender equality, and to create a more progressive society in the short- and long-term. The program is also directly aligned with the objectives of the National Commission to Counter Violent Extremism, which outlines the need to implement Peace Education curricula and build capacity to counter extremism.
Within the context of the Counterterrorism Capacity Building Program (CTCBP), the program directly aligns with the following objectives: (1) making youth more resilient to extremist narratives; (2) providing the DepEd with a powerful and effective program that can be scaled for PVE (directly responding to the National Commission on CT’s Peace Education priorities); (3) providing teachers and the DepEd with increased capacity to teach and inculcate values that have a proven track record of reducing vulnerability; and (4) providing the DepEd with Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) instruments that will be used during the program, and can be used thereafter, to identify communities and schools that have high degrees of vulnerability.
