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.

09.P.AB07: AED - Capable Partners
The Academy for Educational Development (AED) was awarded a USAID/RHAP Associate Cooperative
Agreement for the Local Partners Capacity Building Program under the Capable Partners Leader Award.
AED's Capable Partner's Program (CAP) - Botswana supports the development of increased capacity
among non-governmental organizations (NGOs), faith-based organizations (FBOs), and community-based
organizations (CBOs) to implement successful HIV/AIDS prevention programs. Support includes technical
assistance (TA) and grants management for local implementing partners. Technical assistance includes,
but is not limited to: organizational development, United States Government (USG) compliance (President's
Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) program and USAID funding regulations and guidance), HIV
prevention program delivery, monitoring and evaluation, and finance management.
The grants program will include continued funding for AED sub-grantees, as well as possible new sub-
grantees, groups believed to be best suited to support future HIV-prevention efforts under PEPFAR in
Botswana. This activity is linked to two other activity narratives, one under Sexual Prevention: Other Sexual
Prevention (OP) and another under Health Systems Strengthening; both with separate budgets and
separate indicators. The capacity building activities are described in more detail under the Health Systems
Strengthening (OHSS) program area description.
Within the prevention programming and specific to activities in Sexual Prevention AB, AED will continue to
strengthen the capacity of and fund NGOs/CBOs/FBOs that are currently performing well and implementing
successful and strategically important activities, as well as those who are not currently receiving any other
funding. Additionally, this project looks at ways to help prepare NGO/CBOs/FBOs to receive future funding
from diversified sources. AED's efforts with the sub-grantees seek to build on and utilize previous
assessments done with the sub-grantees and to work to develop and implement detailed technical
assistance plans, through a consultative process, that match the sub-grantees' capacity needs.
AED's sub-grantees under the CAP project undertake a variety of prevention programming and most
receive both Sexual Prevention AB and OP funding, in order to take a more comprehensive approach to
prevention programming. With the HVAB funds, sub-grantees implement a variety of prevention activities
based on best practices and other successful and promising models to include, but not be limited to, a
variety of behavior change interventions to address safer sexual behavior through abstinence programs with
youth, "B" components to reach sexually active youth and adults, and general issues of fidelity, reduction of
partners and multiple concurrent partners (MCP). Concerns of stigma, alcohol use and abuse, gender-
based violence, improved parent-child communication and related areas will also be addressed by AED's
sub-grantees. Target populations include youth, adults in the general population, young vulnerable women,
young people engaged in or at risk for inter-generational sex and other sexually active youth. The sub-
grantees, many of them FBOs, reach their target populations in a variety of ways. These include contacting
youth through kids clubs for in and out of school youth and adults by working with pastor's and church
networks. FY2009 activities will also build on the successful development, pre-testing and use of picture
codes and outreach manuals for sub-grantees' prevention programming.
AED's sub-grantees deliver prevention programs based on tools and interventions which already exist for
HIV prevention interventions across a broad spectrum of communication channels (e.g., peer-based, media-
based, or group-based). Prior to creating new tools or developing new models or interventions, our team
first looks at those already developed for Botswana, including those developed under previous program
agreements and across AED and other PEPFAR implementers' programs, to identify existing resources and
ideas that have been proven effective.
More detail will be available, as AED finalizes their sub-grantees and works with them to develop detailed
implementation plans.
In addition, AED understands that while they are managing grants for part of the prevention portfolio of
USAID in Botswana, there are multiple other USG implementing partners providing grants and support to
local partners, including Population Services International (PSI), Family Health International (FHI),
Tebelopele, Futures Group, Pathfinder, Youth Health Organization (YOHO), LCCT and Project Concern
International (PCI). AED commits to ensuring coordination with these other implementing partners to
ensure consistency in grant application packages and grant management approaches, as well as non-
duplication of funded services.

09.C.TB12: AED - Private-Public Partnership in TB/HIV
ACTIVITY UNCHANGED FROM FY2008
From COP08:
Effective collaborative treatment, care and support of patients with dual TB and HIV disease remains a
challenge at all levels of the health system. The very high rate of HIV infection among TB patients (60 -
86%) implies that may TB patients do not receive adequate support with respect to HIV. The majority of
TB/HIV patients are within the economically active age groups. Businesses face losses due to absenteeism,
lost productivity, lost skills and personnel, and increased medical and indirect costs. TB/HIV patients face
loss of income or even employment when on anti-TB treatment. The BBCA receives PEPFAR support to
conduct some HIV-related activities, but the focus is strongly on HIV/AIDS with little or no attention to
address TB/HIV co-infection.
2008 Plans
It is intended to pilot the provision of workplace TB/HIV activities in Gaborone City, in collaboration with
BBCA. FY2008 funds will support the training of personnel from selected private companies on TB/HIV
issues, focusing on TB case detection, HIV testing of TB patients, TB screening in HIV infected clients, and
treatment support for patients on HIV or TB treatment, and the referral of patients between private sector
settings and TB and HIV public sector services. These activities will support Botswana's Round 5 TB grant
from the GFATM which seeks to scale up community TB care, improve treatment success rate, strengthen
TB/HIV collaborative activities and strengthen supervision, monitoring and evaluation.
