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.

The project aims to improve the resilience of rural communities to climate change, especially for women, in the Kedougou region of Senegal. Project activities include: (1) providing training to 340 farmers from 17 villages on improving planting techniques and gender; (2) providing them with fonio (a type of cereal) seeds and agricultural inputs, including innovative soil nutrient field test kits; (3) training women-led cooperatives on how to create and market biomass briquettes (for fuel), and use grain/cereal husking machines; (4) training community members on forest product harvesting and bush fire prevention; (5) seeding 18,000 indigenous plants; and (6) promoting agroforestry and the use of an indigenous tree species to enhance forest carbon sinks.
The project is implemented by the Jane Goodall Institute of Canada in partnership with Instituto Jane Goodall, the Réserve Naturelle Communautaire de Dindéfélo [Dindéfélo Community Natural Reserve] and the Association Nébéday.

Foundations for Health and Empowerment
7414684 P007593001
This project aims to enhance equitable development and empowerment for women, girls, adolescents, their families and communities in select areas of Asia with high levels of poverty, human resource deficits, inadequate health and early childhood education systems, and entrenched gender inequalities. This project works to advance gender equality and widen opportunities for some of the poorest and most vulnerable people in Asia, focusing on the empowerment of women, girls, and adolescents as the key to addressing the root causes of gender inequality and global poverty. The project responds to the interconnected challenges experienced by women, girls, and their communities through four complementary components: foundations for health, foundations for children, advancing gender equality through civil society, and advancing Canadian champions for development. Project activities include: (1) providing training on management and delivery of gender and adolescent friendly health services, with a focus on sexual and reproductive health; (2) extending sexual and reproductive health services to communities through teleconsultations and e-health; (3) empowering community health workers to screen the nutritional status of children under five years old; (4) developing curricula and resources for early childhood development, for life skills training materials for adolescents and for the identification and response to gender-based violence; and (5) leadership training for young women.
This project aims to reach approximately 1.1 million people in Central Asia
