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.

With PEPFAR support, the International Labour Organization provides technical assistance to nationalpartners to establish a sustainable national workplace program as well as prevent HIV and provideservices using the workplace as an entry-point. The program covers 26 enterprises plus 26 governmentministries. It assists in the development of workplace HIV policies, and implementation of programs usinga combination of approaches. COP 2012 will support the expansion and extension of HIV workplacepolicies, programs and activities as there are planned new HIV/AIDS workplaces program initiatives. Byusing a combination of approaches for prevention (biomedical, information, behavioural and structural)and by using the workplace as an entry point , the ILO contributes to a coordinated and comprehensiveresponse for sexual prevention. The ILO brings to the response its understanding and expertise in theworld of work. ILO knows that the workplace is a key location for HIV/AIDS prevention and care program.Issues in relation to TB in the workplace and gender equity are fully integrated in the training curriculum ofthe peer educators.
The ILO M & E framework and plan will be reviewed to be in alignment with the national thematic area ofresponse management, where the project will contribute to the monitoring and evaluation strategies listedas item 5.5.8 in the National Strategic Framework(NSF). The program will create an enablingenvironment at the implementers level for national monitoring and evaluation activities to operateeffectively through the below listed activities.• Conduct M&E training and workshops to develop, pre-test, review and adopt data collectiontools to improve quality of data obtained from peer educators• Mentoring and audit checklist review and orientation for workplace programs to strengthen theiralignment with new labour standard on HIV/AIDS and the World of Work (Recommendation No. 2000).• Conduct workshops to review and follow up on peer educator work plans and provide technicalguidance on areas with challenges
The project will share M & E reports with the national M & E technical working committee. The Project M& E Officer will be a member of the national M & E committee. The ILO M & E plan will be aligned,implemented and monitored along the national M & E framework. This alignment and support at nationallevel will strengthen the coordination of data management and use to avoid overlaps plus improve ondata accessibility when it comes to monitoring workplace interventions.
With the support of COP 2012, the project will work on developing a data collection tool for peereducators and train them on its use to improve data integrity and quality. The peer educators will betrained on using the tool to collect/record data to be submitted at enterprise level, then at regional levelthrough Regional Multi-Sectoral HIV/AIDS Coordinating Committee (REMSHAC) structures, REMSHACwill feed the national M & E structures.
A presentation has already been made with NERCHA on how ILO can contribute to harmonizing thenational M & E activities at national level. Making inroads to national M & E platforms can be attributed asan achievement, as we are addressing the gap identified by ILO impact survey.

The project's partner enterprises contribute in-kind and financial resources by virtue of allowing workersto attend workshops during official time. In addition they support the development of banners and otherresource materials during the commemoration of the World AIDS Day. Some enterprises have clinics intheir premises which provide services at no cost to the employee.
• Establish and capacitate HIV/AIDS committees in workplaces form the private and public sectorsto coordinate the HIV responses and mainstream HIV in current activities (workplace health facilities,occupational safety and health structures)• Provide technical assistance to the HIV/AIDS workplace committees for the development ofHIV/AIDS workplace policies and programs in line with the ILO Code of Practice and new internationallabour standard on HIV/AIDS and the World of Work (Recommendation No. 200).• Review existing HIV/AIDS workplace legal and policy framework at the enterprises and nationallevels in accordance with the new international labour standard.• Monitor and evaluate the implementation of the workplace policies.• Build program management capacity among partners
The Government of Swaziland/ILO/USDOL/PEPFAR HIV Workplace Education Project supports theimplementation of HIV/AIDS Workplace programs with enterprises from agriculture, manufacturing, retail,uniformed and public service sectors. A large proportion of the workers from these sectors are mobile in
nature and their priority is to earn a salary and not access HIV/AIDS services due to non conducivestructural, environmental and behavioral conditions, therefore the need for HIV/AIDS workplaceinterventions.
The Demographic and health Survey (2006) showed that the country has the highest HIV prevalencerates in the world of 26%. This being the target population of the ILO (15-49).
The ILO with support from PEPFAR and in consultation with its constituents, will therefore ,on thestrength of the above support efforts to combat HIV/AIDS in the world of work across the four regions inSwaziland(national) targeting 23 000 workers from private sector and 27 000 workers from public service.The major thrust of the project is workplace education, protection against stigma and discrimination andincrease worker access to prevention, care and support and treatment services. The strategy is buildingupon the ILO's comparative advantage in advocacy and policy development, particularly drawing on itsCode of practice on HIV/ AIDS and the world of work.
The major strategies to be used in the project include, advocacy for policy formulation andimplementation of prevention, care and support interpersonal communication and capacity buildingactivities within the workplace. With the support of COP 2012 the project will conduct;
• Mentoring and refresher workshops HIV/AIDS workplace committees members and peereducators from the private and public sectors in the implementation of behavior change program for theworkplace with the objective of reducing number of individuals involved in multiple and concurrentpartnerships• Mentoring and refresher courses through structured workshops of master trainers for peereducators in workplaces from the public sector and private sectors to ensure the sustainability of theinterventions• Development of tailor-made behavior change materials for specific target groups of workerstaking into account age, gender, attitudes and practices and dissemination through most effectivechannels to reach them during a significant period to sustain behavior change.• Mentoring and refresher workshops of government officials, key member of employers' andworkers' organizations in the implementation of behavior change strategies and program and policies tocreate an enabling environment to behavior change at workplace even at national level.
The above activities will be evaluated and monitored through a built -in Project monitoring Planidentifying impact as well as strengths and weaknesses for any preplanning needed. A PerformanceMonitoring Plan (PMP) with country-specific indicators was developed to assess project impact. Themonitoring system rests on three pillars:
1) Workers' survey to measure impact on knowledge, attitudes and practices of target workers;2) Workplace monitoring to assess impact on the partnering workplaces of policies and programs,including a workplace audit checklist;3) National monitoring to collect information on the technical assistance provided for activities of thenational partners to strengthen their capacity and allow them to contribute to national strategies andframework
The Government of Swaziland/ILO/USDOL/PEPFAR HIV Workplace Education Project supports theimplementation of HIV/AIDS Workplace programs with enterprises from agriculture, manufacturing, retail,uniformed and public service sectors. A large proportion of the workers are females who are involved intransactional sex and have a high HIV prevalence of 50% (Preliminary results of the SwazilandBehavioral and Surveillance Survey 2010)
