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.
Years of mechanism: 2007 2008 2009
07-C0705: American Society of Microbiology.
This activity has USG Team Botswana Internal Reference Number C0705. This activity links to the following: C0706 & T1201 & T1206.
National Tuberculosis Reference Laboratory: Local organization capacity development FY07 funding is requested for the American Society of Microbiology (ASM) to provide TA to the Botswana National Tuberculosis Reference Laboratory (NTRL) to improve its screening activities. ASM will hire a consultant with strong experience working with TB in Africa to conduct two to three TA visits to Botswana to work with the existing technical group at the NTRL.
FY 2007 PLUS-UP FUNDS: Funds will be used to customize CDC training material to the Botswana setting and to develop AFB microscopy training for laboratory technicians in all primary and district hospitals to support QA/QC activities for TB in government and military facilities. The training material will be used to train about 200 laboratory technicians, prepare proficiency testing panel slides for the national EQA program for districts and primary hospitals laboratory, develop training workshops and conduct on-site visits for laboratories with poor performance in the EQA program. Finally the partner will organize a training for nurses to conduct sputum collection and develop plans for specimen transport between district and primary hospitals and health posts.
