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 - Health and Protection Assistance for People with Disabilities - HI 2020-2021
7418826 P008557001
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 displaced people 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, Humanity and Inclusion (HI) is providing specialized and comprehensive health and protection services for vulnerable Iraqis living with physical, functional and psychological challenges. Project activities include: (1) providing physical and functional rehabilitation services, including the provision of assistive devices, to people with disabilities and their caregivers; (2) providing psychosocial support services to address conflict-related trauma and psychological distress; (3) providing skills training, equipment and resources to local health service providers; (4) conducting direct risk education activities on the threat posed by explosive ordnance, including improvised explosive devices (IEDs); and (5) improving the accessibility of local services and structures.

Mozambican Rural Women's and Girls' Economic Empowerment (PAEF)
7419019 P005255001
This project will support women's and girls' economic empowerment in rural districts along Mozambique's North-South Gaza/Maputo corridor. It will ultimately improve the economic empowerment of women and girl members of agricultural associations within the National Farmers' Union (União Nacional de Camponeses - UNAC). PAEF will adopt a multi-faceted approach that highlights women's and girls' constraints with regard to climate change-friendly income-generating activities -- constraints that perpetuate their lack of power and control over economic resources and their vulnerability to sexual and reproductive health risks. The project will partner with recognized Mozambican organizations. Agro-food production will be stimulated through experimental agroforestry and field training focused on climate smart agriculture. The project will accompany 30 UNAC-affiliated agricultural associations and will create and manage a cooperative venture that will provide products and services that respond to women's and girls' needs and promote high-value-added activities. Finally, PAEF will strengthen the practices of the Department of the Environment and Rural Development (MITADER), the Ministry of Women and Social Action (MFAS) and civil society organizations involved in Maputo and Gaza Provinces, so that they focus on women and girls' economic empowerment and reducing their vulnerability.

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.
