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.

Mobilizing racialized researchers in the feminist recovery
QC21598
This 29-month project will support a feminist response to and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19 through systemic changes. To achieve this, Relais-femmes intends to prepare a portrait of racialized women engaged in partner-oriented research that will include the systemic barriers they face and the solutions to apply; to help create and strengthen formal spaces specifically by and for racialized women engaged in partner-oriented research; to combat enduring systemic barriers by putting forward best practices for partner-oriented research by, for, and with racialized women; to document the measures taken; and to promote any promising practices.
By the end of the project, the organization aims to have helped remove systemic barriers by enhancing networks and collaboration to expedite systemic change and by supporting a positive distribution of power, the right to speak, and decision-making authority in support of women’s equality.
Relais-femmes will create separate spaces for racialized women so they can develop strategies for breaking down the systemic barriers preventing them from accessing leadership roles.
