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.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) supports the Millenium Development Goals (MDG) defined by the heads of state during the world summit for the Millenium held in New York in September 2000. These goals envisage positive improvement by 2015 in the well-being of the population, especially for women and children, in all the basic areas of human life. Therefore, the DRC has set out to build « a world worthy of the children of the DRC » from the ten worldwide commitments delineated by the Special Session of the United Nations devoted to children, held in New York in May 2002.
The government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo plans to complete the second Demographic and Health Survey in 2012 conforming to the activity program of the National Institute of Statistics. This survey combines data collection programs from the first Demographic and Health Survey (DHSI-DRC) and the Multiple Indicators Survey of 2010 (MICS-III).
The second Demographic and Health Survey (DHSII-DRC) will make available information on fertility levels, sexual activity, fertility preferences, knowledge and use of family planning methods, breastfeeding practices, nutritional status of women and children under the age of five, child and infant mortality, maternal mortality, maternal and child health and on knowledge, attitudes and behavior with regard to AIDS and other sexuallly trasmitted diseases. New sections are included in the questionnaires; they include use of bednets and testing for HIV, malaria parasitemia and anemia.
The information collected will comprehensively update basic socio-demographic and health indicators that date most recently from the 2007 DHS and the 2010 MICS. The data will be representative at the level of the 11 former administrative provinces, as was the case f
The second Demographic and Health Survey in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DHSII-DRC 2012) will be undertaken in 2012 on a representative sample of women age 15-49 and men age 15-59. The DHSII-DRC will collect data at the national and provincial (11 provinces) levels in order to achieve the following main objectives: 1. Calculate essential demographic indicators, especially rates for fertility and infant and child mortality rates and analyze the direct and indirect factors that determine levels and trends in fertility and infant and child mortality; 2. Measure primary and secondary school attendance and completion indicators (Crude Rates, Net Rates of Primary schooling, Completion rates for the 5th year of primary school); determine the level of illiteracy in the adult population;3. Measure levels of knowledge, attitudes and practice of contraception among women by method; evaluate health and reproductive behavior of adolescents (contraception, sexuality, use of services); This study will also include an AIDS Indicator Survey.4. Appraise the status of family health: immunizations, prevalence and treatment of diarrhea and other illnesses among children under five years old, antenatal visits, delivery assistance and postnatal visits; 6. Evaluate the nutritional status of children and women, appraise nutritional practices of children, including breastfeeding; measure the household iodized salt consumption level;7. Evaluate anemia prevalence among children under the age of five, women age 15-49 and men age 15-59;9. Appraise the knowledge, attitudes and practice of women and men concerning STI and AIDS;10. Estimate HIV prevalence in the adult population of reproductive age by means of blood samples for the anonymous screening of HIV among women age 15-49 and men age 15-59;12. Estimate the level of adult and particularly maternal mortality at the national level;13. Measure the status of women and domestic violence.
