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.

Agreement:

P003038001: Better Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights for All in Indonesia
P003038002: Better Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights for All in Indonesia -- respond to COVID-19

Agreement Number:

7382705 P003038001 P003038002

Duration: from Feb 2, 2018 to Dec 31, 2022
Description:

P003038001: In light of persistently high levels of maternal mortality and unmet need for family planning, and prevalent harmful practices (including female genital mutilation and child marriage), the Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights in Indonesia project, in partnership with UNFPA and UNICEF, aims to transform sexual and reproductive health and rights for women and young people in Indonesia by addressing key gaps in the quality of birth attendants, access to comprehensive sexuality education and youth-friendly services for young people, and advocacy and community-based programming for the prevention of gender-based violence and harmful practices using the male involvement approach (focusing on child marriage and female genital mutilation). This initiative is directly aligned with Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy and supports Canada's commitment of $650M over three years to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR)

P003038002: In light of persistently high levels of maternal mortality and unmet need for family planning, and prevalent harmful practices (including female genital mutilation and child marriage), the Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights in Indonesia project, in partnership with UNFPA and UNICEF, aims to transform sexual and reproductive health and rights for women and young people in Indonesia by addressing key gaps in the quality of birth attendants, access to comprehensive sexuality education and youth-friendly services for young people, and advocacy and community-based programming for the prevention of gender-based violence and harmful practices using the male involvement approach (focusing on child marriage and female genital mutilation). This initiative is directly aligned with Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy and supports Canada's commitment of $650M over three years to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).

The project’s objective to transform SRHR for women and youth in Indonesia is facing additional challenges due to COVID-19. Existing SRHR issues in the country including child marriage, unmet contraceptive needs, gender-based violence and services to pregnant women have been exacerbated by the imposition of community quarantines, limited access to and/or utilization of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services by midwives and health practitioners. In line with Canada’s FIAP, the additional funding and activities would deliver commitments on SRHR and support the Government of Indonesia National Medium-Term Development Plan 2020-2024 targets, by ensuring the SRH services during the pandemic. The proposed amendment would help to reduce the impact of COVID-19 on the SRHR of women and adolescent girls in Indonesia by implementing activities to improve the capacity of the health system to provide gender-responsive SRH information and services in the current context of a pandemic, thus increasing the utilization of those services.
