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 2013
CDC Gap in conjunction with UNAIDS will continue strengtheningthe capacity of countries to more effectively reach and deliver sustainable high quality HIV/AIDS/STI/TB services focusing in the areas of service delivery, health workforce capacity and laboratory strengthening. In addition, CDC GAP and UNAIDS will continue supporting the Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala and Panama Ministries of Health with direct expert technical assistance to assist in the development and execution of HIV/STI/TB activities, strengthening technical capacities of institutional human resources, update country profiles and some special studies in each country.
Epidemiologic HIV/AIDS Country Profiles Epidemiologic HIV/AIDS Country Profile will be disseminated in Honduras. The country Epidemiology Profiles are produced to give city and county governments, community-based organizations, health care planners, and educators the data they need to plan and evaluate HIV/AIDS prevention and care activities. It also includes data from ancillary sources such as STD, TB and reproductive health. Triangulation exercises will be finalized and disseminated in Honduras and Guatemala to support findings from the EPI Profiles.
UNAIDS will also continue working on strengthening a unique and evidence based M&E system in conjunction with CONASIDA M&E Unit (the National AIDS authority in Honduras)
Training & Communications CDC through UNAIDS will continue strengthening human resources for health in the areas of HIV, STI, TB, surveillance and reproductive health. In Costa Rica, UNAIDS through PAHO and Ministry of Health will disseminate HIV Modules of Patients Monitoring and Early Warning to non-adherence in the HIV National Surveillance System and will also finalize strengthening technical capacities of institutional human resources in Costa Rica.
