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.

Support to the civilian-led political process in Sudan
7457188 P014021001
This project seeks to ensure that Sudan’s political process to end the war and post-war state-building planning is civilian centered. Global Partners Governance aims to support a broad coalition of Sudanese civilian actors under the most credible civilian platform. Project activities include: (1) advocating to the belligerents, the United Nation, the African Union, Inter-governmental Authority for Development and regional and international governments for an end to the conflict; (2) providing the identified civilian platform with technical, logistical and political facilitation support to organize consultation and dialogue meetings; (3) coordinating international technical support provided to the civilian platform, mainly support focused on designing an inclusive mediation process; and (4) liaising between the civilian platform and the international community.
