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: In FY 2008, the USG will provide funds to the Haiti Out-of-School Youth Livelihood Initiative
(IDEJEN), implemented by the Education Development Center, to target high risk out-of-school youth ages
15-24 with HIV/AIDS prevention messages integrated into their ongoing livelihoods program. IDEJEN will
continue an established collaboration with the Foundation for Reproductive Health and Family Education
(FOSREF), Management and Resources for Community Health (MARCH) and Fondation pour le
Developement et l'Encadrement de la Famille Haitienne (FONDHEF). IDEJEN will initiate new partnerships
to provide technical assistance in developing prevention strategies. Partnership building, capacity building
of CBOs and the engagement of adult stakeholders such as parents and teachers are also key elements of
the approach. IDEJEN will collaborate with its partners to reach out-of-school youth including OVC, restavek
(marginalized domestic servants) and street youth ages 10-24 with a focus on youth ages 15-19. Peer
educators will provide at-risk youth with referral information to counseling and testing (CT), sexually
transmitted infection (STI) treatment and condom outlets. This program is funded with 75% AB funding and
25% OP funds.
BACKGROUND: The IDEJEN program, funded by the USAID Education program has been implemented by
the Education Development Center since 2003. IDEJEN works through community based youth-serving
organizations (CBOs) through a sub-grant program and strengthens them to deliver much-needed
education and job and life skills training. IDEJEN has developed an innovative program for out of school
youth from marginalized pockets of Haitian society. Each CBO is provided with technical assistance in
organizing the community, conducting community assessments and planning the program to maximum
participation by parents/guardians and the youth themselves. This is an attempt to help communities drive
out gang activity, take back their neighborhoods and empower out of school youth. CBOs are encouraged
to work directly with the local authorities, MOH Departmental Directors, the Ministry of Youth and Social
Affairs, and PEPFAR partners to ensure integration of prevention efforts targeting high risk youth 15-24
years of age. IDEJEN began initially with 650 youth between 15 to 20 years of age in three target zones—
Port-au-Prince slum areas in the West Regional Department, Jeremie (peri-urban) in Grande Anse Regional
Department and Mirebalais (rural) in the Center Regional Department. IDEJEN provides non formal basic
education and vocational training to at-risk youth who have had no or limited primary education.
ACTIVITIES AND EXPECTED RESULTS:
Activity 1: With technical assistance, adult leaders, parents and program monitors will be trained to
incorporate HIV/AIDS ABC prevention messages into their on-going life skills programs. AB and OP funds
will be used to purchase HIV/AIDS materials and equipment for the peer education and outreach program.
Activity 2: Establishment of a youth HIV/AIDS peer education and counseling program.
This activity will help each CBO to add an HIV/AIDS prevention peer education module into the ongoing
training focused on high risk youth. Currently, the vocational training courses offered include sewing,
plumbing, electrical works, auto repair, handicrafts, and processing of local agricultural products. This year
a peer education component will be added. IDEJEN will hire a local HIV/AIDS Prevention Coordinator to
plan and implement the peer education component. IDEJEN will select up to 200 youth leaders to be trained
as Youth Peer Educations for HIV/AIDS Prevention. The IDEJEN Field Monitors will undergo a training of
trainers (TOT) course and in turn be responsible for training the Youth Peer Educators with assistance from
PEPFAR partners. Training will include information on HIV/AIDS transmission and prevention, sexual
health and reproduction, self-risk assessment, developing risk reduction strategies, alcohol and drug abuse.
In FY08, approximately 200 youth will be trained as Youth Peer Educators who will, in turn, reach about
3,500 youth with AB or ABC prevention messages.
Monitoring and Evaluation of these activities including data collection, use, quality and feedback will also be
a continued and focused effort in FY08.
