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.

Technological Bridges for Citizen Engagement

This project seeks to address the political, social, and economic exclusion of youth, particularly young women, youth living with disabilities, and other marginalized youth in the Middle East and North Africa region, particularly Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt. The aim is to equip civil society organizations (CSOs) and youth leaders with the tools and know-how to effectively use technology to broaden the spaces available to engage in the democratic processes that promote transparency and human rights, as well as hold public officials accountable. The project makes use of accessible technology (e.g. mobile phones, short message services-SMS, and social media) and seeks to develop the digital literacy skills required to understand and manage online information and tools.
