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 VOA activitys goal is to raise awareness of the Burundian population especially the youth about HIV prevention through specific HIV radio programs. This activity will contribute to the implementation of the Burundi GHI strategy particularly one the three cross-cutting areas: Improved behavior and increased demand for health services . The geographic coverage of the VOA program is nationwide and more that 8.5 million populations will be covered. The program will be articulated around a weekly 30 minutes radio program in Kirundi (Burundian local language spoken country wide) that focuses on HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, gender-based violence and to some extent Maternal and child health. For more sustainability and capacity building purposes, the program will be prepared and disseminated through local media in particular RPA which has already working relationships with VOA. VOA will conduct extensive research and monitoring of its shows to demonstrate reach and impact. VOAs outside contractor, Intermedia will include questions about effectiveness of the radio program, its quality, and impact on audiences.
VOA, whose mission is to deliver news and facts-based information, will interview and consult with leading national and international health officials as it develops stories and features about health topics of vital importance to the people of Burundi. Some of the stories and features include:
Healthy lifestyles, including ending multiple partners, faithfulness and drug avoidance;
HIV testing, treatment and care;
Mother to- child transmission of HIV
Gender-based and sexual violence
Tuberculosis, prevention measures and treatment
Using a network of stringers across the country, a trained medical doctor, professional journalists and radio dramas, VOA will give a voice to Burundis young majority, allowing them to have a say in helping combat the HIV/AIDS epidemic and other critical health issues. The program will also concentrate on women empowerment in the struggle against gender-based and sexual violence. VOA will conduct extensive research and monitoring of its shows to demonstrate reach and impact. VOAs outside contractor, Intermedia will include questions about effectiveness of the radio program, its quality, and impact on audiences.
