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.

P001327001: The project aims to increase the capacity of the Government of Ethiopia to efficiently implement and scale up the Agricultural Growth Program-Phase II (AGP II) which is designed to increase agricultural production, productivity and better link smallholder farmers to markets.
Activities include: (1) training, on the job coaching to the Ministry of Agriculture’s human resources at the federal, regional, zonal and indirectly at the district level; (2) support to establish efficient coordination and consultations mechanisms with all relevant stakeholders, including the Ministry of Trade; Recruitment of Canadian and local expertise to provide specific technical support particularly for the new dimensions of AGP II.
P001327002: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the project is implementing immediate response activities targeting men and women farmers. These activities include providing personal protective equipment such as mask, soap, sanitizers; developing COVID-19 communication materials on prevention and management of transmission; and expanding the gender toolkit for training men and women farmers.
This funding increase to respond to COVID builds on the existing Capacity Development Support Facility initiative. This initiative supports the Government of Ethiopia in implementing and scaling up the Agricultural Growth Program-Phase II to increase agricultural production and productivity, and link smallholder farmers to markets. This is done by building the capacity of federal, regional, and zonal government staff to develop, train, and facilitate programs of implementing agencies and project coordination units.
