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.

Linked to Activities 9725, 9287.
SUMMARY: This activity will be carried out by the follow-on project to U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)'s Linkages Project, for which a contractor will be selected in late 2006.
ACTIVITIES AND EXPECTED RESULTS: Activity 1: The primary responsibility of this partner will be to provide training for health care professionals from PMTCT sites to work with HIV positive women before and after delivery on issues of best infant and young children feeding practices. This nutritional advice and education is part of the complete package of PMTCT services based on providing the mother with the information to make an informed choice about the feeding of her child. The partner institution will work in coordination within the context of the PMTCT training program carried out by the Haitian Institute for Community Health (INHSAC) to conduct trainings and also to ensure that INHSAC training staff is trained to carry out the IYCF training program on their own in subsequent years. Health care providers and counselors at PMTCT sites will be trained in the provision of quality PMTCT services, focusing mainly on the post-natal transmission of HIV and with a particular emphasis on the interactions between ARV drugs and nutrition. IHNSAC staff will provide this same training to health care workers and community health agents of the USG's community-based implementing partners on optimal nutrition counseling of women and children in community education and outreach settings. These activities will build on the training activities conducted by INHSAC and Accessibility to Reproductive Health Services/John Hopkins Program for International Education & Gynecology Obstetric (ACCESS/JHPIEGO) in the area of PMTCT and will coordinate with activities carried out by Catholic Relief Services, Cooperative for American Relief Everywhere (CARE) and World Vision with mothers in their community-based OVC programs. Nursing staff, social workers and community health agents will be trained in the promotion of best infant feeding practices.
