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 address the needs and aspirations of children affected by conflict in Mindanao. Mindanao is one of the longest-running conflicts in the world, with the armed conflict between Muslim groups seeking self-determination and the Government of the Philippines. The project focuses its support on children formerly associated with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and children in MILF communities at risk of association or re-association with armed groups. Project activities include: (1) helping children to recover from the stress of being exposed to violence both as witnesses and perpetrators; (2) avoiding children’s future engagement in violence, including association with other armed groups; and (3) guiding children to take up positive, peaceful and non-military roles within their families and communities. The project is implemented in collaboration with MILF, the Government of the Philippines and Mindanao-based civil society organizations.
