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.

The Gender Dimension of Veteran Transition: Workshop and Mentorship Program
This grant supports a workshop that responds directly to the diversity and well-being priorities of the Canadian Armed Forces, including how Canada can improve the support given to CAF members as they transition from military to civilian life; how the CAF can best address mental health issues; and, what strategies have been useful for other large organizations in addressing systemic discrimination. A GBA+ analysis will be used throughout the workshop, including the application of this lens to veteran transition policy and programs.

Nigeria - Nutrition and Protection Assistance - Save the Children Canada 2018-2019
7389151 P006096001
March 2018 – The conflict between Boko Haram and Nigerian armed forces has devastated communities in north-eastern Nigeria. It is estimated that 10.2 million people will require humanitarian assistance in order to survive in 2018, of which 85% are women and children. As the conflict evolves, humanitarian access remains a challenge. Assistance for basic survival, basic services and protection is vital for displaced populations, host communities and vulnerable people across the north-east.
With GAC’s support, Save the Children Canada is helping to assist more than 109,000 conflict-affected people in Borno state. Project activities include: (1) providing treatment to children under five suffering from severe acute malnutrition and diseases that exacerbate malnutrition, benefiting more than 28,000 children; (2) providing hygiene promotion activities, with a focus on improving nutrition outcomes, benefiting more than 102,000 people; (3) providing psychosocial support and life skills training to girls and boys aged 3-17, benefiting up to 7,060 people; and (4) providing case management, response services and referrals to survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, unaccompanied and separated children, children associated with armed forces and armed groups, adolescent heads of household and other at-risk girls and boys, benefiting up to 9,050 people.
