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.
PEPFAR, through USAID activities, applies a technical assistance approach to support PMTCT and HCT services in Angola. HIV commodities such as ARVs and rapid test kits have historically been procured through Global Fund grants and GRA resources, and then distributed through INLS warehouses. However, PEPFAR implementing partners have reported intermittent stock-outs at the local levels. Following consultations with other donors, Global Fund staff, the INLS, and the PEPFAR interagency in Luanda and at HQ, an urgent shortage of pediatric ARVS was identified. In response to a formal request from the MOH/INLS in August 2012, SCMS was mobilized to provide a small, one-time, emergency shipment of pediatric ARVS to fill the gap. In the interim, a GF-supported shipment of adult ARVS arrived in-country to replenish existing stocks.
SCMS is delivering a one-time, emergency shipment of pediatric ARVS as follows: Abacavir 20mg/ml solution (quantity = 480), Efavirenz 50 mg (quantity = 360), and Lopinavir/ritonavir suspension (quantity = 480). To reduce the risk of future stock-outs, PEPFAR will provide technical assistance through SIAPS to strengthen the INLS logistics system, including improved approaches for forecasting, warehousing, distribution, and monitoring of HIV commodities. SIAPS, an existing implementing partner in-country, will also help monitor the distribution and use of PEPFAR-funded pediatric ARVS.
