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.

Building on the successes of FANTA-II, the Food and Nutrition Technical Assistance III (FANTA-III) will continue to lead USAID's global nutrition programming excellence. FANTA-III will be a five year cooperative agreement that aims to provide technical assistance that contributes to strengthened food security and health policies, programs and systems for improved nutrition. Nutrition is an important component of USAID's food security and health programming and the critical nexus between the Global Health Initiative (GHI) and the Feed the Future Initiative (FtF). As such FANTA-III will achieve its objective by strengthening country-driven food security and health policies, programs and systems and by building up the global evidence and capacity for food security and health policies, programs and systems for improved nutrition. Given the multisectoral nature of nutrition, FANTA-III will be expected to leverage previous experience in health, infectious diseases, humanitarian assistance and food security programs in order to provide technical assistance that enables country programs to achieve impact in nutrition. In nutrition and HIV/AIDS, FANTA-III will be expected to improve the linkages between nutrition, HIV/AIDS and food security particularly in leading efforts to develop tools for program assessment, design, implementation and monitoring and evaluation as well as strengthening linkages with other health and humanitarian assistance programs.
The Food and Nutrition Technical Assistance III (FANTA-III) will build on the work of FANTA-II and will continue to focus on supporting the Government of Ethiopias national level nutrition and HIV/AIDS policies and guidelines. In COP 12, FANTA-III will provide technical assistance and strategic support to the Ministry of Health on the revisions and updating of nutrition and HIV/AIDS policies and guidelines as well as associated materials for the roll-out. In addition, the program will continue to sustain pre-service training by supporting the development and roll-out of national nutrition and HIV/AIDS curriculum in additional universities. FANTA-III will coordinate with other nutrition partners to introduce quality improvement aspects in nutrition and HIV/AIDS activities. More specifically, the program will identify actions and systems including the development of indicators, standards and approaches that can be put in place to improve the quality of HIV/AIDS programming. Lastly, FANTA-III will work to develop approaches that can be used to introduce nutrition and HIV/AIDS into services at the community level for HIV/AIDS infected and affected persons as part of nutrition support and care.
