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: 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
This mechanism supports the CAR Regional PEPFAR Strategy Objective 1.The overall goal of the Peace Corps PEPFAR program in Kyrgyzstan is to provide education on HIV/AIDS prevention, behavior change, stigma reduction, responsible behavior and consequences of drug use, and promotion of healthy lifestyles among youth. Technical assistance is also provided to local organizations to reduce stigma and discrimination in the community and among service providers. Populations targeted by Peace Corps Volunteers and their counterparts will include at-risk youth, trans-migrant population and others at risk for engaging in injecting drug use and commercial sex. The project will be conducted in Chui, Talas, Issyk-Kul and Naryn oblasts. Peace Corps continues to strengthen its approach to development which advances country ownership of PEPFAR program efforts through placement of volunteers in requesting local governmental and non-governmental organizations for specific assignments that are time-limited and designed from the onset to build community capacity to sustain projects. In every instance, this involves day-to-day collaboration with host country national partners and counterparts. Volunteers and their counterparts receive training in monitoring and evaluation and PEPFAR reporting. Peace Corps compiles data on Volunteers’ PEPFAR-funded activities on a semi-annual basis and conducts periodic site visits to monitor the implementation of activities.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
