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: 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
This TBD implementing mechanism will focus in the area of strategic information for KZ, KG, TJ and UZ, with the possibility of TK in a second year. The activity will focus on surveillance. As part of PEPFAR CAR's strategy in the region, PEPFAR CAR will engage in intense data collection process, which will include case reporting and sentinel surveillance, MARP size estimation, MARP mapping, and collecting ethnographic and demographic data on MARP as part of sentinel surveillance or MARP size estimation/mapping (activities to be conducted elsewhere in the ROP include TRAC surveys and PLACE studies). The technical assistance provider will engage in partnerships with MoH with the goal of building in-country capacity to collect, analyze, and disseminate information related to HIV/AIDS epidemic.
HIV Sentinel Surveillance, as described in the TAN, has not been formally evaluated for whether it captures data representative of the country nor whether the information is collected in a valid and consistent manner. The system has variable numbers of sites per country.
Key issue:
HRH
As part of capacity building, MoH personnel will be trained.
Mobile Population:
Migrants are considered one of the six MARP groups in most CAR countries. Few data on their risk exist, however. This award will explore the likelihood that mobile populations are at high risk and bring services to them.
