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.

This is accomplished by mobilizing partners at the federal, provincial/territorial and community levels, as well as the private and voluntary sectors, and other stakeholders, to address barriers to well-being faced by those who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness.

Team Grant: HCIS - Urban Indigenous Health
169954
The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:
• Advance the field of implementation science: Understand how to implement evidence-informed interventions in different urban contexts and populations so that they result in positive and equitable health outcomes in real-world settings. This includes understanding how specific interventions can be adapted to different regions, ages, cultures, genders, or conditions, and how the interventions can be scaled given unique social, political, economic, cultural, and geographical contexts.
• Build capacity in implementation science: Build capacity among researchers (including early career researchers) and implementers. This includes providing opportunity for linkage with other capacity-building efforts of the HCRI (e.g. the Healthy Cities Research Training Platform and HCRI Fellowships) and by fostering a network of “learning cities” that share and build on each other’s experience, support continuous improvement, and identify promising solutions for scalability.
• Spark interdisciplinary collaborations across sectors and jurisdictions: Build partnerships across sectors and jurisdictions to co-develop and implement projects in order to contribute to a sustained impact beyond the duration of the grant.
• Identify new solutions: Generate new knowledge on evidence-informed interventions that can be scaled in urban environments to promote health and health equity.
• Fill the knowledge gap and position Canada as a leader in implementation science: Make significant contributions to the field of healthy cities implementation science research and training including fostering international collaborations and knowledge sharing across Canada and internationally.

Project Grant - PA: Patient-Oriented Research: Early-Career Investigator
167561
• Canada’s Strategy for Patient-Oriented Research (SPOR) is a national coalition of federal, provincial and territorial partners (patients and informal caregivers, provincial health authorities, health centres, charities, philanthropic organizations, private sector, etc.) dedicated to the integration of research into care. Its vision is that by 2025, Canada will have demonstrably improved health outcomes and enhanced the health care experience for patients through the integration of evidence at all levels of the health care system.
• As outlined in the SPOR Patient Engagement Framework, patient-oriented research refers to a continuum of research that engages patients as partners, focusses on patient-identified priorities and improves patient outcomes. This research, conducted by multidisciplinary teams in partnership with relevant stakeholders, aims to apply the knowledge generated to improve healthcare systems and practices.
• As a partner in SPOR, CIHR will provide bridge funding for fundable applications that are below the competition funding cut-off and aligned with the SPOR vision, the SPOR Patient Engagement Framework and the SPOR Capacity Development Framework. Categories are described in the Funds Available section.
