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: 2008 2009
08.P0219 Life Skills Consultancy
In In this activity, PEPFAR will support an outside agency to work with the MOE to roll out its new life skills
materials to schools through out the country.
For four years, USG has collaborated with the MOE to develop and implement a state-of-the-art HIV
prevention curriculum for use in all public schools in the country. To date, five sets of materials are ready,
one each for ages 6-7, ages 8-9 (lower primary), ages 10-12 (upper primary), ages 13-15 (junior
secondary), ages 16-18 (senior secondary). Materials for ages 8-9 are printed and distributed to all primary
schools across the country. Materials for upper primary are being printed, and the Ministry is preparing
tenders for the printing of the secondary school level materials. Over 200 teachers have been trained as
master trainers to support a cascade of trainings on the materials through the education system, and the
Ministry conducted a baseline survey for future evaluation purposes, which has not been disseminated.
USG will soon hire an outside agency to assist the MOE with all aspects of implementation.
In 2008, an agency (TBD) will continue to help train additional master trainers as needed, depending on
progress made in the next 12 months, and support a series of second-tier training-of-trainers for the
secondary school level, to have at least 2 trained teachers per school. Through the training cascade,
ultimately 15,000 secondary school teachers will be trained in the life skills curriculum. The Ministry may
request refresher training for those lower primary teachers who were trained previously and who will receive
the printed materials next year.
New for 2008, the prime partner will develop support materials for learners to support the core curriculum in
the classroom and at home. Students and teachers use workbooks, and during the pilot phase, both groups
requested additional support materials, such as posters, hand-outs for students and their guardians, videos,
and/or photo cards that stimulate discussion. These support materials will further engage students, give
teachers more options for integrating the curriculum into their work, and help engage parents/guardians into
the program. The focus of this effort will be older students in Junior Secondary and Senior Secondary
levels (approximately 160,000 learners will ultimately benefit). The content will reflect that of the core
curriculum and highlight key issues, such as alcohol abuse prevention, cross-generational sex, and other
related themes.
