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 human resources capacity to deliver ARV clinical care services
Input: The USG will provide financial support to the University of Pennsylvania to conduct expansion of their
activities for inpatients by creating a second team of HIV care providers at the Princess Marina Hospital in
Gaborone and provide similar services at the Nyangabgwe Hospital.
Activities/ Outputs: The University of Pennsylvania's activities in assisting the National ARV program consist
of providing human resources to deliver clinical ARV care and assisting in improving guidelines for quality of
care. This is done through teaching medical care providers at the patient's bedside, initiating in-patients on
ARVs according to the national ARV treatment guidelines and following up patients in the outpatient setting.
The University of Pennsylvania medical team or "Firm" has also been involved in strengthening the HIV
testing for inpatients in Princess Marina Hospital. This activity is expected to continue in 2005.
Outcome: These activities will improve the shortage of staffing in the national hospitals, increase access to
treatment and improve quality of HIV patient care.
(This is a continuation of FY 2004 activities)
