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.

Commonwealth of Learning – Institutional Support 2025-2027
7465987 P013467001
This grant represents Canada's institutional support to the Commonwealth of Learning (COL). The COL uses these funds, along with other donor funding, to achieve its mandate, which is to help governments, institutions and organizations expand the scale, efficiency and quality of learning by using appropriate open, distance and technology-enabled learning.
Guided by its 2021-2027 Strategic Plan, the COL focuses its programming and advocacy using distance learning and technologies to achieve improved outcomes in education, skills development and lifelong learning across the Commonwealth. It acts as an enabler, a capacity-builder and a catalyst to empower people through learning that leads to economic growth, social inclusion and environmental conservation.
Project activities of COL include: (1) improving the capacity of government staff to develop and implement appropriate open and distance learning (ODL) strategies, policies and programs; (2) improving the capacity of staff and trainers to use, implement and scale up gender-responsive, quality ODL opportunities offered by institutions; (3) facilitating access to learning opportunities, particularly for women and girls, through community sensitization and support; (4) providing mentorship and facilitating access to services and financial resources for entrepreneurship and livelihood development; and (5) establishing partnerships with labour markets, finance and the service industry to facilitate the transition between learning and its practical application in the market.
