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.

Psychological Status Monitoring by Content Analysis and Acoustic-Phonetic Analysis of Oral Behaviour (CAPA)

Duration: from Nov 25, 2015 to Dec 31, 2022
Description:

The psychological aspects of isolation inherent to spaceflight are one of the principal risks that require research. The project described here will enrich available psychological analyses through the examination of a variety of data consisting of samples from written text as well as from speech recordings (crew conversations, voice diaries, standard texts) and/or reports collected at regular periods from the crew participating at Concordia missions. Because of the high fidelity of Antarctic stations to space isolation, this study is expected to yield important insights to the risks of human spaceflight.
