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: 2013 2014
The Global Fund is a key player in the health sector and provides a significant share of funding to combat HIV/AIDS, TB, and malaria in Burundi. Through the implementation of the Round 8 HIV/AIDS grant (Phase II with more than $80,000,000 over three years), the Global Fund provides:
ART treatment for the general population;
Prevention services among the general population and for specific at risk populations
Improved diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted infections in health facilities
Enhanced prevention of HIV through blood transfusions, providing better case management of accidental exposure to blood, and to survivors of sexual violence;
Expanded primary prevention of HIV infection in women of reproductive age;
Strengthened PMTCT services by integrating reproductive health services.
The PEPFAR program will be working closely with the Global Fund to make sure that necessary synergies are established and efforts to avoid duplication are successful. In fact, the success of PEPFAR programs is intrinsically linked to an effective implementation of GFsupported programs. In order to maximize the chance of successful implementation, PEPFAR will bring its technical assistance through Grant management Solutions (GMS) to help Burundi through the strengthening of the Country Coordinating Mechanism and the principal Recipients of the GF grants.
GMS has already provided technical assistance to the CCM in Burundi during the period of 2009-2010. Its work focused on the revision of the CCM statutes, the CCM internal regulations, the CCM procedural manual, and the capacity building of the members of the CCM. At the end of 2012, the CCM was renewed and almost 80 percent of the members are new. The CCM has already received technical assistance from the 5 Percent French Initiative to strengthen the capacity of the new members. But there are still technical assistance needs particularly in the implementation of the various GF grants. Based on the identified needs supported by a request from the CCM and the GF PRs, PEPFAR through GMS will provide urgent, short-term, management-related technical support to Global Fund grantees. Depending on the nature of the CCM request, the assistance will be targeting Financial and grant management seeking ways to strengthen financial and management systems and procedures; Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and reporting and GMS's assistance will range from workshops on how to use the Monitoring and Evaluation Systems Strengthening Toola planning process required by the Global Fundto improving reporting procedures and ensuring adequate M&E staffing.
