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: increased access to and availability of VCT services through institutional capacity building of the
Tebelopele VCT Center network ;integrated VCT in selected FBO/CBO/NGO services
Input: Through a cooperative agreement with Tebelopele VCT centers, the USG will provide technical
assistance and funding to support ongoing provision of HIV counseling and testing services. Through
competitive bidding, Tebelopele will select and subcontract a qualified agency (secondary partner) to
conduct social marketing activities for VCT services. These funds cover six months of funding for
Tebelopele operations following the end of the AED contract, which builds capacity from August 2004 to
September 2005 (under both the FY 2004 and FY 2005 Country Operational Plans).
Activities/Outputs: After the AED's support for capacity development, Tebelopele will be responsible for all
aspects of VCT service delivery and overall administration and management, human resources, logistics,
financial management, supportive supervision, monitoring and evaluation of VCT services. Tebelopele will
be responsible for providing HIV counseling and testing with same-visit results. Approximately 40% of
Tebelopele clients test HIV positive. These clients will be counseled about positive living and referred to
treatment, care and support using a referral form that has been developed. Referral linkages will be
improved through an assessment of the current process and by conducting follow-up activities with AIDS
service agencies in the network in various geographical locations. Tebelopele will also develop referral
directories in collaboration with partners in the network.
Outcome: During the period October 2005 to March 2006, thousands of Batswana will receive quality HIV
counseling and testing services, including couples counseling and testing, and referral to the government
ARV treatment, care and support services. A number of AIDS counseling and testing agencies will learn
from the Tebelopele experience with VCT service delivery over the years. Tebelopele counseling and
testing protocols will be adapted to other settings and ensure increased access to counseling and testing
services. An increased number of people who know their HIV status will also reduce the stigma and
discrimination associated with HIV/AIDS in Botswana.
