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.
Reorganize the structure and functioning of the PMTCT unit at the Yaoundé Military Hospital and its integration and collaboration with related services within the hospital. Reinforce the capacity of PMTCT personnel through training and refresher trainings. Train service providers at ANC on Provider Initiated Testing and Counseling (PITC) approach and encourage its application to improve enrollment in the PMTCT program. Provide technical and material support for sustainability and productivity of the PMTCT unit at YMH. Ensure the availability and rational management and ordering of drugs, tests and other reagents. Reinforce collaboration and effective integration of the military PMTCT unit to the regional PMTCT coordination unit. Ensure M& E of all PMTCT activities.
Ongoing efforts to strengthen the diagnosis of HIV and other STIs, TB and OIs in the Cameroon Armed Forces with QA will be performed. Lab personnel trained in the areas of bacteriology (meningitis, diarrhea, blood, urine, antibiotic susceptibility testing), serology (HIV, hepatitis, stool parasites), parasitology (stool and blood smears) and PCR and lab information management to improve timely, accurate diagnosis and use of testing for quality patient care and disease surveillance will be mentored for continued rational use for lab monitoring of PLHIV.
