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.

Jimma University (JU), the first innovative community-oriented educational institution of higher learning in Ethiopia, is a major contributor to skilled-health human resources development for the country. To date, a wide array of anti-HIV/AIDS activities has been initiated by the hospital, including counseling and testing, PMTCT, care/ART, prevention, and HIV/AIDS in-service and basic training that are supported by PEFAR Ethiopia. JU has also initiated highly acclaimed diploma and degree HIV/AIDS monitoring and evaluation (M&E) training programs, with support from PEPFAR Ethiopia and Tulane. The teaching hospital is serving as a site for in-service training of the health workers required to rollout HIV/AIDS program activities in Oromiya, the largest and most populated region (28 million).
JU has benefited from PEPFAR Ethiopia's regionalized support by partnering with ICAP-Columbia University (ICAP-CU). HIV/AIDS activities in the university are being consolidated. This has enabled the university to strengthen ART services and the training being provided on various aspects of ART to all cadres of health professionals working in the university, its teaching hospital and the health networks in the catchment area of the hospital. This will enable the university to provide effective support to the in-service training of health workers in Oromiya and adjoining regions and will assist in development and adaptation of technical materials for local use, and serve as a demonstration site for other training facilities in the region, a point of networking with other institutions of higher education in Ethiopia, and for establishing twinning partnerships with sister institutions overseas. For the university to establish itself as a technical support center in the long-run, managerial and leadership capacities need to be further developed. There is a need for deliberate action to establish managerial and technical capabilities by offering the university the opportunity as well as the challenge to handle directly the administration and management of the technical and logistical arrangements required to support the health networks delivering ART and other HIV/AIDS-related services.
The university will strengthen its support to in-service training and direct technical assistance (TA) to Oromiya RHB and carry out pre-service training on HIV/AIDS, including ART. JU will be involved in regional activities related to data processing, documentation of best practices, and dissemination of scientific information. JU will collaborate with ICAP-CU and Management Sciences for Health (MSH), and will also undertake planning and review meetings with other local universities and stakeholders as appropriate. The university, while closely working with and getting intensive technical support from ICAP-CU, will be provided with an opportunity to engage directly in managing its HIV/AIDS program through a co-operative agreement with CDC Ethiopia. This arrangement will allow JU to strengthen its engagement in managing its HIV/AIDS program and its support to the national and regional health networks. This will help the university to build the capacity it will need to take over the technical support currently provided by ICAP-CU, when the latter pulls out its support.
