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.

The goal of the TB CARE 1 project is to facilitate capacity building, accelerate TB/HIV collaborative activities, support multi-drug resistant (MDR)-TB management, and TB infection Control (IC) by providing long and short term technical assistance to the Botswana National Tuberculosis Program (BNTP) and the National TB Reference Laboratory (NTRL). In addition to providing two long-term advisors, KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation headquarters staff provides country visits and administrative support for the Botswana-based staff to ensure high quality technical assistance appropriate to meet the needs of the BNTP. Given the operational challenges faced by the BNTP, the support also strengthens the laboratory services for TB control and program management of patients dually infected with TB/HIV, with or without drug resistant tuberculosis. In partnership with the Ministry of Health (MOH), KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation provides support to the NTRL so that it can develop into a well-functioning laboratory, fully equipped and capable of performing the roles and responsibilities needed for supporting excellent clinical management of drug susceptible and resistant TB, routine drug resistance surveillance, and quality assurance of TB microscopy.
KNCV TB CARE I will continue collaboration with the MOH and other partners to improve TB control in Botswana. A Senior Technical Advisor has been placed at the Botswana National Tuberculosis Control Program (NTCP) and will provide support in six technical areas: programmatic management of drug resistant tuberculosis (PMDT); laboratory strengthening; TB/HIV collaborative activities; monitoring and evaluation; community DOTS; and, TB infection control. Laboratory strengthening activities will continue with support from the current Chief Medical Laboratory Technician, who will work closely with MOH staff to further build capacity of the national laboratory network and the NTRL quality management systems. KNCV will provide backstopping visits (two country visits per year by senior international technical advisors) to further provide in-country technical support as well as desk support from The Netherlands and from the Kenya Regional Office for PMDT, M&E, Laboratory strengthening, TB/HIV collaborative activities, Community DOTS, Global Fund TB Round 11 proposal development, and human resources development.
