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.
Years of mechanism: 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
Dire Dawa City Administration Health Bureau (DDCAHB), currently in its 3rd year of PEPFAR funding, is a local governing body for all health care activities within the Dire Dawa City Administration (DDCA). The population of DDCA is projected to be 395,000 in 2015 with 70% living in urban setting; estimated HIV prevalence for 2015 is 3.0%. An estimated 8,794 PLHIV will reside in DDCA in 2015.The goal of this IM is to successfully transition PEPFAR supported comprehensive facility based HIV treatment, care and support, and prevention activities to DDCAHB while ensuring uninterrupted delivery of quality services, aligning with the country strategy for sustainability and local ownership. The 13 health facilities providing HIV clinical services cover the entire DDCA, which has an area of only 600 sq mi. The large majority of sites are in urban locations; 11 of 13 have more than 50 patients on ART so are situated where target population can access them. Those served also include the surrounding population from Oromia and Somali Regions. Access to key populations will be enhanced by creating a MARPS friendly environment within the continuum of HIV services and establishing with community based outreach groups such as MULU 1.The DDCAHB will leverage its human, financial, and infrastructure resources and integrate other health programs within DDCAHB to improve efficiency. The DDCAHB works in alignment with the National HMIS for its M&E of PEPFAR supported activities. It will report its activities based on PEPFAR indicators under each program area, share best practices, and use site-level data for program improvement. With departure of the international partner, and DDCAHB taking over all site level support, the outlay rate of PEPFAR funds is expected to increase significantly.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
