PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.

Narrative Overview
Charles Drew University of Medicine and Science in Los Angeles, California (CDU) is committed to improving the health of the under-served populations of the world. CDU has been partnering with the Angolan Armed Forces on a prevention program since 2001, and has been expanding its relationships with Angolan agencies ever since.
In the context of growing HIV/TB co-infection in Angola, Africa, the proposed project focuses on developing Angolan institutional capacity for a coordinated and long-term response to these co-occurring epidemics. Through technical assistance provided by Charles Drew University to the Angolan National Programs for HIV and TB and to the medical universities of Agostinho Neto and Jean Piaget, this project will design protocols and training curricula to improve surveillance, diagnostics, and treatment of HIV/TB co-infection. At the conclusion of this project, the main institutions charged with the coordinated HIV/TB response will be in possession of the protocols that define the roles, obligations and methodologies to be followed by health providers and other stakeholders, as well as training materials to prepare health providers to diagnose and treat HIV/TB co-infection.
With COP 10 funding CDU will provide technical assistance to the National program for HIV and TB to design protocols and training curricula to improve surveillance, diagnostics, and treatment of HIV/TB co-infection. CDU will also continue facilitating the national TB advisory group.
