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.
UNAIDS has begun efforts to eliminate pediatric AIDS in Angola as a part of their Countdown to Zero initiative. In an effort to increase coordination between USAIDs PMTCT activities being implemented under the integrated health award, SASH, and in order to fulfill a desire to strengthen the Government of Angolas ability to plan, implement, and evaluate PMTCT programs, funds have been allocated to MSHs Building Local Capacity (BLC) project to work with UNAIDS, the CCM, PEPFAR partners and the local entities who are implementing the national plans for the elimination of pediatric AIDS in Angola.
Support will be provided through a Portuguese-speaking consultant, who is familiar with the current PMTCT context, and who will collaborate closely with the UNAIDS representative who is coordinating the effort. A pool of consultants have been identified, and the specific needs and terms of reference for the consultants are being developed in conjunction with UNAIDS and the INLS.
