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
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
The Global Fund is a key player in the health sector and provides a significant share of funding to combat HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, 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 and overlap are successful. In fact, the success of PEPFAR programs is intrinsically linked to an effective implementation of GF–supported 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.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
