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.

Women’s Entrepreneurship and Livelihoods Initiative in Ghana and Senegal
7425473 P009685001
This project seeks to address COVID-19 challenges through a youth-centered and gender-responsive economic empowerment project. This project aims to increase economic empowerment to strengthen resilience for adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) most affected by COVID-19 in targeted areas in Ghana and Senegal. The project’s locally-led approach harnesses proven resources from training, mentoring and curriculum programs in skills development and entrepreneurship through in-person and adapted digital models.
Project activities include: (1) sensitizing community members (men, women, boys and girls) on AGYW participation in entrepreneurship; (2) scaling-up economic activities in informal sector opportunities created by COVID-19; (3) providing (COVID-19)-adapted training to AGYW in entrepreneurship and sustainable livelihoods and support; (4) raising awareness on gender-based violence and support services provided during COVID-19; and (5) building network opportunities for AGYW entrepreneurs and investors.
The project aims to reach over 6,700 AGYW in Ghana, over 3,200 AGYW in Senegal and indirectly benefits approximately 50,000 (of which 50% women) in the targeted project areas.

EQWIP HUBS: Canada World Youth and Youth Challenge International - Volunteer Sending 2015-2020
5007061473 P000812001
This volunteer sending project supports 526 volunteer assignments. The project contributes to improve economic and social well-being of beneficiaries in six developing countries. The project aims to increase the capacity of local partner organizations to deliver innovative, sustainable, gender responsive livelihood programming for young women and men through volunteer placements and the co-implementation of youth-focused Innovation HUBs. HUBs are adaptive, accessible, youth-friendly spaces that bring together the training, support services, access to capital, networks and technology young people need to access sustainable livelihoods. The HUBs also serves as a center for outreach, community engagement, supporting networks and provides services to a broader network of youth with limited access to the HUB.
The project brings together organizations from the public, private and civil society sectors to create a HUB network at each HUB. This network provides an enabling environment for youth to: better understand the needs of the private sector in relation to skills for employment; increase awareness of potential market opportunities for entrepreneurship; and create an interface through which young people can influence and inform the development of youth products and services resulting in more relevant products and services for young people.
