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.

Tanzania - Access to Basic Services for Burundian Refugees - Oxfam Canada 2018
7392504 P006012001
March 2018 – As a result of the political tension and insecurity ongoing in neighbouring Burundi since 2015, north-western Tanzania now hosts approximately 275,000 Burundian refugees and asylum-seekers. Tanzania is also host to some 85,000 Congolese refugees. Altogether, the high number of refugees has strained the local response capacity of both Tanzanian authorities and aid agencies. Inadequate access to water, food and shelter remain key challenges across all three refugee camps. There is a critical need for international support to continue to provide basic services and safe and dignified conditions for all refugees.
With GAC’s support, Oxfam Canada is providing water and sanitation, protection, and livelihoods support to an estimated 129,500 Burundian refugees and host community members living in or around the Nduta refugee camp in Kigoma region, Tanzania.
