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.
Years of mechanism: 2013 2014
The PEPFAR Small Grants Program (PSGP), formerly known as the Ambassadors' Small Grants Program (AHPP) through the Caribbean ROP, has supported small community based HIV prevention projects in the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize and the OECS countries, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and Suriname. Activities include workplace awareness sessions, advocacy, training Peer Educators, support groups, Gender based violence, etc. The Central America PEPFAR team will continue to support funding of the Small Grants Program, since Belize has moved solely under Central America and has the highest HIV/AIDS prevalence rate in the region. With ROP13 funding, new requests for proposals will be sent out by the Embassy to provide an opportunity to civil society groups whom would not normally be able to access funding. The priority target groups are Key Populations (MSM, Female and Male Sex Workers, their clients, PLHIV, and youth engaged in high risk behaviors). The grants support NGOs to develop and implement small high quality HIV/AIDS prevention programs serving these populations.
The PSGP is requesting $25,000 to support community level interventions with key population groups such as MSM, Female and Male Sex Workers, their clients, PLHIV, and youth engaged in high risk behaviors. Activities include empowerment workshops, advocacy, training Peer Educators, support groups, the provision of referrals to the MOHs public health clinics and other HIV prevention activities. The grants are aimed at supporting the work of the National program, targeting populations that are traditionally difficult to reach. They are meant to be small quick impact projects implemented by community based organizations that would not normally be able to access funding for their activities. The project currently supports approximately three NGO/CBO in Belize. The program also facilitates collaboration with the State Department and other U.S. agencies, Ministries of Health, Ministries of Education, charity based and religious organizations.
