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.
TBD ($500,000)
The MOH will select a new TA provider in January or February of 2007. (See Activity #7981). Candidates for this position will include the four other existing blood safety TA providers: Safe Blood for Africa; Social & Scientific Systems, Inc.; the World Health Organization (through a sub-contract with PAHO); and Sanquin Consulting. These candidates, who were selected in the orgininal competitive process for the Track 1 Blood Safety awards, will be presented to the Minister of Health who will select the new TA provider.
The new TA provider will begin work in Guyana on April 1, 2007. It is expected this partner will build on the training and systems strengthening work performed by AABB since 2004. The new TA provider will also be encouraged to base one member of its technical staff in Guyana to closely liaise with the NBTS and with the CDC blood safety team (in country and in Atlanta).
Activities will also include advocacy and technical assistance for national legislation regarding transfusion services, coordination with public and private sector healthcare workers regarding rational blood use policies, coordination with the Guyana Red Cross Society to enhance blood donation activities, assistance with the transition of NBTS to SCMS, and improving data collection and reporting systems at NBTS.
These activities will contribute to the Emergency Plan's 2-7-10 goals by reducing the incidence of HIV infections due to blood transfusions.
