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.

Project activities include: (1) increasing awareness and access to quality sexual reproductive health services, including improved family planning services; (2) increasing the knowledge and skills of adolescents, especially girls, to negotiate for sexual and reproductive health rights, and improve the knowledge, attitudes and skills of communities to promote positive gender and social norms; (3) strengthening sexual and gender-based violence preventive and responsive measures; (4) integrating nutrition-focussed services and awareness in sexual and reproductive health services; and (5) building the capacity of government and women- and youth-led organizations to advocate for, develop, and coordinate adolescent sexual reproductive health services. It also increases the knowledge and skills of government staff, health workers, health administrators, teachers, and community leaders in collecting and using data to continually improve the quality of sexual and reproductive health and related services.

Developing long-term capacity for digitizing First Nations language material in the Yukon
LHOV-05-024
Through previous Listen, Hear Our Voices funding the Yukon Native Language Centre (YNLC) was able to set up a state-of-the-art digitization facility, work closely with 11 of 14 Yukon First Nations (YFNs) to identify prioritized audio recordings for digitization, and digitize a total of 825 of the prioritized materials. Although 825 is a massive achievement, it was clear through YNLC communications with YFNs that the YNLC audio recording collection holds far more than 653 prioritized audio recordings (the 11 participating YFNs requested a total of 871 audiocassettes).
The goal of this follow-up project is to continue with the digitization of prioritized audio recordings, as well as expand the YNLC capacity for digitization and intellectually connect existing materials of different formats.
