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.

Democracy and Empowered Women
7407107 P006187001
The project’s goal is to enhance inclusive democratic processes for the advancement of women’s rights and at risk population, such as minorities and transgender communities in Pakistan. The project also aims to change the patterns of women's political and civic participation through changes in behaviors, practices and performance of key institutions to promote the participation of disenfranchised people (whose right to vote was removed) in community development, local governance and mainstream political decision-making processes.
Project activities include: (1) providing training to women and youth for leadership in community and local government; (2) conducting voter education training sessions for women and youth groups, and for chapters of Awaz-e-Niswan (AAN), a membership-based network of women voters across the country; (3) providing support for the establishment of four AAN district chapters for meaningful engagement with State actors and non-State actors; (4) providing capacity building support in gender-responsive governance to new and existing networks of women in local government in 15 districts; (5) providing technical assistance (TA) and training to media on gender-sensitive reporting skills to support women’s political participation in 15 districts, given by elected representatives; (6) providing TA to women political party workers, and key leaders and legislators (women and men) to advocate for women’s empowerment within political parties and in parliament; and (7) providing TA to set up a “Parliamentary Watch” to track progress on gender-sensitive legislation and policy actions.
