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.

This includes salary and benefits costs for the three USAID-funded USG team members: the USG
Coordinator, the USAID Program Manager and the USAID Program Specialist. The current USG
Coordinator has been at post since FY06 under the USAID-IAP mechanism, but she was recently selected
as the new USAID USPSC Program Manager and will transition to that position once her contract has been
negotiated and executed. Beginning in FY08 the USG Coordinator position will also be contracted by
USAID/Pretoria/RHAP as a USPSC, but USAID involvement will be limited to funding, contracting and
administering payroll and assignment travel. The Coordinator will be detailed to DOS/Embassy Mbabane,
which will provide direct supervision (COM or DCM) and all local support. S/he will be a member of both the
USG PEPFAR Task Force and Steering Committee, and typically will chair the meetings of both bodies.
The first USG Coordinator contract solicitation did not yield candidates with sufficient qualifications and
skills, and the position was re-advertised in late FY07. The selection process is currently underway, and the
USG Coordinator should be in place by the third quarter of FY08.
Both the USAID Program Manager and USAID Program Specialist will be recruited, managed and
supervised by USAID/Pretoria/RHAP, and will be responsible for USAID's HIV/AIDS portfolio. The USPSC
Program Manager will coordinate the overall USAID program in Swaziland, and will also manage the critical
technical area of Prevention. The FSN Program Specialist will be hired by DOS/Embassy Mbabane, will be
supervised by the USAID Program Manager, and will manage the technical area of Human Capacity
Development. The Program Specialist position is currently ready for advertising and should also be filled by
the third quarter of FY08. The USG program management attribution of salaries and benefits for both these
positions are reflected here, and the programmatic attributions are reflected in the narratives and budgets of
the relevant technical program areas. Both the USAID Program Manager and USAID Program Specialist
will be members of both the USG PEPFAR Task Force and Steering Committee.
