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.

Mozambican Rural Women's and Girls' Economic Empowerment (PAEF)
7419019 P005255001
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.
