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 project aims to enhance the role of national media in raising public awareness and shaping the national agenda on sexual and reproductive rights, and in ending gender-based violence against women in remote rural areas. It would facilitate collaboration among social and health workers, community radio, community leaders and youth to combat social stigmas related to sexual and reproductive rights and gender-based violence. The project would also increase the participation of women’s rights organisations and women leaders in the development of public policies on sexual and reproductive rights, influencing policy makers to implement gender-responsive actions. The project would directly support 140 journalists, 30 media organizations and outlets, and 30 civil society and women’s organizations, reaching an estimated 400,000-600,000 women, adolescents, and gender-diverse people, as well as 9,000,000 Tunisians through media coverage.

Duration: from Feb 3, 2025 to Mar 31, 2027
Description:

December 2024 - As a result of the ongoing conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces, Sudan is facing a complex and unprecedented humanitarian crisis. This is characterized by massive protection violations, the displacement of over 11 million people and dire levels of acute food insecurity and malnutrition in many parts of the country.

With GAC’s support, Action Against Hunger Canada aims to reduce mortality and morbidity, improve wellbeing and support the dignity of conflict-affected refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host communities in Central Darfur and South Kordofan, with a particular focus on women, adolescent girls and children under the age of five. Project activities include: (1) providing life-saving nutrition treatment to acutely malnourished women and children; (2) provision of sexual and reproductive health services, such as family planning, to women and adolescent girls; (3) construction and rehabilitation of water supply systems, gender-sensitive sanitation facilities and waste management systems; (4) distribution of gender-sensitive hygiene and non-food item kits to vulnerable households; (5) distribution of multi-purpose cash assistance, with a particular focus on women-headed households; and (6) support for local health facilities, health workers and other service providers in the form of training, nutrition products and data collection tools.
