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 project aims to use food security and agriculture as a platform for women’s empowerment. The project works to advance the rights of women and girls by providing gender appropriate and climate-smart agricultural training, and helping women to increase and control their incomes. The project also addresses harmful norms that limit women’s participation in agriculture and works to reduce sexual and gender-based violence. Project activities include: (1) providing training to women and their communities on natural disaster planning and response, natural resource management, and conflict resolution; (2) providing training to women and their families on nutrition, including topics related to equitable food distribution and child-feeding practices; (3) distributing small livestock, poultry and other inputs to women so they can engage in income-generating activities; (4) providing training to women on leadership, functional numeracy, literacy, and management skills; and (5) facilitating discussions on the reduction of gender inequalities, and the prevention of sexual and gender-based violence.
