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.

P000856001 & P000856002 & P000856003: This project aims to improve inclusive economic growth and support peacebuilding in Colombia by providing market-driven training and employment opportunities for women, victims of the armed conflict, at-risk youth and Venezuelan migrants in eight cities: Soacha, Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Cartagena, Barranquilla, Buenaventura y Quibdó. The project also increases the ability of local authorities and private sector partners to develop and implement inclusive employment policies and practices for vulnerable populations. Activities incude: (1) training of youth beneficiaries (60% women), providing them with market-driven technical skills to access decent employment; (2) creating internship opportunities for targeted youth beneficiaries; (3) developing partnerships with private sector companies interested in providing internship and employment opportunities for poor and vulnerable people; (4) training private sector partners on gender-responsive and inclusive recruitment and retention of poor and vulnerable people; and (5) signing diversity and inclusion protocols as part of the human resource management practices of private sector partners.
The project is expected to reach 10,000 vulnerable women, youth, victims and migrant, and at least 60 per cent will receive a guaranteed job placement with private sector partners.
