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.
Result: strengthened early childhood development activities and school-age programs through integrating
HIV/AIDS prevention activities
In collaboration with the MOH and with technical assistance from Educational Development Center (USA),
BOTUSA has helped develop instructional materials for students and teachers to promote the teaching of
the government's life skills curricula and to ensure application of the curricula in schools. The curricula is a
life skills program on HIV/AIDS and related topics (e.g. self awareness, peer pressure) for all the schools in
the country, grades 1- 12, and emphasizes abstinence among the lower and upper grades and adds
discussions of partner fidelity in high school grades. The instructional materials provide background
information on these topics as well as age-appropriate, participatory exercises for teachers to do with their
students. The materials have been piloted in numerous primary schools, and pilot testing in secondary
schools is underway.
Inputs: The USG will provide funding and technical assistance for the continuation of this project.
Activities/Outputs: During FY05, the Ministry of Education, with a contractor selected by them, will develop
a plan to monitor and evaluate the use and impact of the instructional materials and the life skills curricula
more generally. The initial stages of that plan (e.g. baseline survey) will be implemented. MOE will also
assess the need for additional supportive materials to give to students and/or teachers, to reinforce the
curricula and the companion instructional materials. Funding may also be used to supplement the MOE
budget for printing and distributing the materials and providing training to teachers in their use.
Outcome: The curricula will be launched and implemented nation-wide, evaluation mechanisms will be in
place, and youth life skills strengthened.
