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.

Transforming the Market for Stoves and Clean Energy in Haiti
7386553 P002436001
The project aims to restructure and boost the market for efficient stoves and clean energy in order to protect the environment, improve the health of women and children and strengthen women's economic power within new value chains for producing and marketing stoves and clean energy. The project supports the Government of Haiti with the implementation of the national action plan for stoves and clean energy.
Project activities include: (1) providing training to some fifty businesses so that they may participate in the design and production of stoves using improved technologies; (2) providing businesses with support in marketing and creating business plans; and (3) providing the Haitian government with support in relation to capacity, and the development and application of regulations to improve market growth. The project aims to have 150,000 households adopt a clean and efficient technology as well as have 100 entrepreneurs in the wood charcoal sector adopt better practices with respect to cost-effective and energy-efficient approaches.
By adopting energy efficiency into the sector, the project helps to reduce the sector’s greenhouse gas emissions, thereby contributing to climate change mitigation.
