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.

Measuring Gender Impacts on Operational Effectiveness of UN Peace Operations
7417879 P008589001
This project aims to improve the effectiveness of United Nations (UN) operations to protect civilians, particularly women and girls, in fragile and conflict-affected states, by providing decision makers with evidence based knowledge on gender and peacekeeping. The project works to collect, analyse, and distill the contributions made by uniformed women in peacekeeping operations that have influenced peacekeeping mandate outcomes. The UN and Troop and Police Contributing Countries (TPCCs) aim to use this information to make improved gender equality informed decisions, with respect to increasing the number of women in peace operations, and creating a receptive environment for women in uniform. Project activities include: (1) conducting extensive and in-depth academic research to gather and analyse information on operational effectiveness; (2) organizing field visits and interviews with key stakeholders; and (3) providing advocacy and sensitisation activities.
