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.

Catalyst Grant: Moving Upstream - Indigenous Health and Wellness
183649
The overall aim of this funding opportunity is to support robust research to analyze, monitor, contextualize and/or evaluate how structural or “system-level” drivers (e.g. legislation and policies) can create, maintain or exacerbate health (in)equity across populations, regions, contexts and settings.
The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are:
• To increase the evidence base on the structural determinants of health inequities in Canada.
• To support a range of identifiable and/or novel interdisciplinary research designs, theories, methods, and approaches to understand the structural determinants of health and their impacts on health (in)equities.
• To foster connections and collaboration between researchers and stakeholders across a broad range of disciplines, including (but not limited to) population and public health researchers, public health professionals, people with lived experience, communities, knowledge keepers, knowledge-users, and decision-makers to translate knowledge into policy and practice. This form of knowledge synthesis will be supported through a convening event that all funded applicants will attend during the funding period.
