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 Small Project Assistance (SPA) program's purpose is to increase the capabilities of local commnities to conduct low-cost, grassroots sustainable development. Witihin the scope of this overarching objective, the SPA program responds to the mututal interests of both USAID/Cambodia and Peace Corps/Cambodia. Financial resources provided by USAID Missions allow Peace Corps Volunteers and their local counterparts to identify tranining, education, or awareness raising opportunities in their communities, and subsequently design and plan the implementation of a small project to meet this identified need.Once volunteers, actiing in partnership with their Cambodian counterparts, have identified a potential activity, a funding proposal must be drafted and reviewed by a committee comprised of staff from USAID, the Peace Corps, and PCVs. If approved, the proposal will be funded by the Peace Corps in accordance with their own internal protocols and those dictated by the PAPA. Following this, the activity will be implemented in the timeframe laid out in the proposal.In the process, PCVs help remote communities, often beyond the direct reach of USAID funded projects, to become more self-reliant and to establish linkages to larger NGOs and/or governement programs that are often supported by USAID.The SPA Program enables USAID to have a direct development effect in selected prioritiy areas, while supporting PCVs to engaged community members in participatory processes that contribute to community directed sustainable development. As part of the SFA program, PCVs provide HIV/AIDS education and awareness programs in schools, health centers, and communitiies. Any funding under SPA can lead to small projects where volunteers working with community memembers on HIV/AIDS projects.
This is a small grants program, so exact activities will not be known until proposals are solicited and awards made.Examples of anticipated potential activities include:Training of village health workersTraining of municipal health personnelNGO developmentEquipment and resources to support community-based health careInstructional materials
