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.

Responding to the needs of adolescents in sexual and reproductive health and rights
7465565 P013180001
This project seeks to support a resilient health system to respond to adolescent sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) needs in select communities in Dinajpur and Netrokona Districts of Bangladesh. It takes a comprehensive approach to advancing SRHR by going beyond health services to address gendered inequalities, discriminatory social norms and institutional structures. These structures limit access to sexual and reproductive health services and promotion of SRHR in Bangladesh.
Project activities include: (1) providing training on environmentally safe, gender-responsive, and adolescent-friendly sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services and supportive supervision to health facility workers; (2) training community health workers on gender-sensitive and adolescent-friendly SRH or maternal, newborn and child health services. These services include family planning, sexual and gender based violence, referrals, men’s engagement, and healthy behaviours; (3) launching a psychosocial care program to guide adolescents in decision-making, psychosocial health and SRH, and gender based violence (GBV), and provide mental health referrals; (4) supporting local communities to undertake community-led action plans to address community-specific SRHR barriers and concerns, including child, early, forced marriage, gender-based violence and teen pregnancies; and (5) supporting the promotion of adolescent friendly comprehensive sexuality education, including GBV issues and a welcoming and safe school environment for all adolescents in local schools.
The project directly seeks to reach an estimated 210,937 people and 450,000 indirectly.
