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.

Equally Safe: Towards a Feminist Agenda for the Safety of Journalists - Phase 2 (FEMSOJ 2)
7459171 P013733001
The project aims to enhance the safety and resilience of women journalists globally, focusing on Bangladesh, Brazil, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Chile, and Paraguay. By further disseminating the findings of FEMSOJ 1 among key actors globally, regionally, and in the target countries, and integrating new findings produced in the monitoring during FEMSOJ 2, the project seeks to catalyze policy changes in journalist safety approaches. Simultaneously, by providing holistic training and fostering peer support networks, the project aims to empower women journalists in target countries, enhancing their capacity to navigate risks and advocate for their rights. Ultimately, the project will contribute to creating a safer environment for all journalists by mainstreaming feminist approaches and bolstering the resilience of women journalists worldwide.
