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.

Building the Capacity of National Women’s Rights Organizations
WP240271
This 13-month project will allow the Canadian Research Institute for the Advancement of Women (CRIAW) to support the capacity of national women’s organizations that focus on key areas such as justice, leadership, sexual and reproductive health and rights, and gender-based violence. This will be achieved through the further distribution of funds to selected national women’s organizations, taking into consideration those who advance equality for underrepresented women, to implement activities to reinforce their capacities. This project will allow the selected national women’s organizations to develop internal tools and resources that will enhance their capacities to expand on, enhance or improve the delivery of their respective missions and mandates. CRIAW will compile and analyze the results of these projects in order to develop a national overview of the capacity of national women’s organizations in Canada.
The supplemental funding will allow CRIAW to create and coordinate a solid knowledge sharing mechanism between selected national women’s organizations (FDF recipients) and allow a strong reporting component to be put in place.
