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.

Summary:
The world of work is an ideal environment to reach large numbers of adults with HIV/AIDS prevention
interventions. Providing access at the workplace to HIV/AIDS prevention information, as well as referrals to
counseling and testing, HIV care and treatment services is an efficient and cost-effective way to prevent
infections and to identify large numbers of persons in need of multiple HIV/AIDS services. SMARTWork and
its "tripartite" alliance of labor unions, private sector employers, and Haitian ministries of health, education,
and labor will reach large numbers of Haitian employees with HIV/AIDS risk elimination approaches
emphasizing partner reduction, mutual monogamy, alcohol and drug abuse, ‘know your status' messages.
During FY08, AED SMARTWork will implement the recommendations from the internal assessment
conducted in August 2007 which recommends that SMARTWork implement an exit strategy that would build
a legacy of enhanced capacity, particularly in the field of BCC and preventive education. Thus, in FY08
SMARTWorks will coordinate closely with local organizations' training or other services to build local
capacity to provide prevention training in the workplace. In addition, SMARTWork will focus on building
capacity within the existing enterprises to build in-house capacity for these enterprises to continue their
HIV/AIDS prevention and education activities focusing on fidelity and reduction of partners within this
population.
These activities are split funded 25% AB, 75% OP.
Background:
Initiated in 2002, Strategically Managing AIDS Responses Together in the Workplace (SMARTWork) fosters
social dialogue around workplace HIV/AIDS prevention at national and enterprise levels, as well as stigma
and discrimination reduction. Taking a bipartite (business-labor) approach at the enterprise level and a
tripartite (business-labor-government) approach at the national level, SMARTWork aims to reduce HIV
transmission through effective prevention programs, and encourage policies that provide for workplace
protection and human rights of individuals affected and infected by HIV.
SMARTWork aims to target its efforts using evidence based strategies to respond to the epidemic. The
workplace is a critical channel to provide HIV/AIDS prevention interventions. SMARTWork does this through
workshops, outreach, and special events using a core group of trainers and outreach workers to deliver
messages that foster fidelity, partner reduction, and condom use. Complementing and reinforcing these
messages are workplace policies, IEC materials, and referrals to CT, STI, and care and treatment services.
Activities:
SMARTWork will continue their on-going activities focused on HIV/AIDS prevention within the workplace;
but in FY08, activities will strive to build in-house capacity and ownership of the HIV/AID prevention
program within local NGO's. In addition, activities will be executed in conjunction with established local
NGO's working within the factories in order to transition the work from AED to local partners. It is
recommended AED SMARTWork follow the assessments recommendation conducted in 2007 which
determined that the current team of educators could be transferred to the VCT partners which next year will
receive no direct funding from Smartwork but rather direct funding from PEPFAR. The educators could
enhance pre-and post-test counseling by a wider array of preventive and educational activities addressing
issues such as stigma. They could also work to enhance the capacity of those in the workplace to carry out
independent educational activities so increasing autonomy and long-term sustainability of HIV prevention
within the workplace.
1. On-site Prevention workplace activities: SMARTWork will train local Haitian NGO's (e.g. Bernard Mevs,
City Meds) to conduct on-site workplace prevention education sessions for employees and management
and train a cadre of peer prevention educators in each participating workplace. Communication messages
and materials will be designed so as to target specific HIV/AIDS prevention needs of segments of the
workforce, depending on their occupations, ages, gender and other risk factors.
This work will be carried out in factories and with worker unions, and will be a continuation of SMARTWork's
program from previous years. A key component of the intervention will be messages of fidelity and
reduction of partners, as well as encouraging workers and their partners to know their status, and to
increase their access to HIV testing and counseling. For those testing positive or in need of STI treatment or
treatment of opportunistic infections, referral mechanisms will be in place so that employees can easily go
to sites where quality HIV/AIDS and STI care and treatment services are available, and reproductive health
services may be accessed. These activities will be linked to PEPFAR supported CT sites and CT will be
provided at Union events by City Med clinic.
Female focused activities: Similar to efforts with men, SMARTWork will work to build upon our experience
with female workers to target them with key IEC messages that emphasize women's empowerment and
usage of condoms and key negotiation strategies to protect themselves from HIV transmission.
2. Leveraging Union Partnerships: SMARTWork will continue to provide technical and financial assistance
to Haitian Union confederations: CTH, OGITH and CATH to establish union-based prevention activities
using union gatherings and written communication materials to expand SMARTWork's efforts to reach all 10
Haitian Departments. Unions have shown great progress towards achieving targets and SMARTWork will
continue to engage with union leaders and their members as a primary channel for conducting behavior
change outreach activities. Special focus will be given to incorporating these activities into ongoing union
training programs, and building union capacity to develop their own HIV/AIDS prevention programs.
