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 African Network for Care of Children Affected by HIV/AIDS (ANECCA) is a Pan-African network of experts involved in promoting access to quality services for prevention, care and treatment of HIV infection in children. Due to realignment of Care and Treatment activities across PEPFAR agencies in Ethiopia, it is necessary to modify ANECCAs scope of work to fill outstanding pediatric HIV programmatic gaps. An important gap in the care and treatment continuum is the provision of quality HIV services to adolescents who have emerging psychosocial and sexual/reproductive health needs. It is imperative to ensure that HIV-positive adolescents receive appropriate, quality and comprehensive HIV treatment, care and support services that are tailored to their needs. Additionally, secondary prevention is important during this stage to control the spread of HIV by this group. Currently, there is no comprehensive program in Ethiopia that is targeting HIV-positive adolescents; and the GoE has recognized this gap and has asked for PEPFAR assistance. In this regard, ANECCA will support the GoE to develop and roll-out a program that is focused on HIV-positive adolescents within the current national HIV/AIDS control program. The overall objective will be to support the GoE to strengthen, standardize and monitor implementation of the national program for care, treatment and support of adolescents living with HIV. The program will be aligned with GoEs National Strategic Plan II (SPMII), the Global Health Initiative and the GoE-USG HIV/AIDS Partnership Framework. Two vehicles will be procured with a unit cost of $55,000. No COP 12 funds are requested; the partner will utilize pipeline funds.
The African Network for Care of Children Affected by HIV/AIDS (ANECCA) will support the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) to develop a national program for HIV-positive adolescent services. The project will build on activities conducted by ICAP and other partners. The revised workplan for this partner will be finalized but illustrative activities include:
Conducting a baseline knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) survey for adolescents living with HIV;
Conducting a care and support needs and service-mapping assessment for HIV-positive adolescents;
Sensitization and consultation with key stakeholders at national and regional levels;
Defining a care and support package for adolescents living with HIV;
Designing a framework and systems for program planning; implementation and monitoring/evaluation;
Developing the necessary tools for effective implementation of the program;
Selection of sites for piloting the HIV-positive adolescent health program; and
Initializing activities in the selected pilot sites.
Since 2008, the African Network for Care of Children Affected by HIV/AIDS (ANECCA) and other partners have supported the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) in scaling up pediatric ART services in the country. By the end of FY 2011, there were 14,208 children on ART with a significant proportion already in the adolescent age group. This age group of PLWHA has not been fully addressed in the current HIV/AIDS control program, particularly taking into consideration adolescents unique psychosocial and sexual/reproductive health needs. In FY 2012-13, ANECCA will support the GoE in strengthening adolescent treatment services; particularly with regards to the adolescent ART adherence program. The key activities will include:
Conducting ART adherence needs assessment among adolescents living with HIV;
Sensitization and holding consultative meetings with key stakeholders at national and regional levels with regard to status and proposed strategies for ART adherence among adolescents.
Developing adolescent ART adherence strategies for Ethiopia; and
Designing monitoring and evaluation framework and tools for adolescent ART adherence.
