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: Public Health Institute will recruit, hire and place a Global Health Fellow to fill the position of
Strategic Information Manager on the Haiti PEPFAR Team under their Global Health Fellowship Program.
BACKGROUND: The needs in strategic information (SI) support to the Haiti PEPFAR Program have
surpassed the capacity of the USG team members currently working on strategic information. The Strategic
Information Liaison and Technical Advisor, from the CDC team, has been supported on a part-time basis by
a monitoring and evaluation project manager on the USAID team. The USAID position has been eliminated
but the functions will be filled by a contractor within the next year. In the meantime, the expanding number
of implementing partners and a greatly expanded number of activities requires additional manpower on the
USG Team to address all of the SI needs of the program. Public Health Institute, in partnership with
Harvard School of Public Health, Management Systems International and Tulane University School of
Public Health and Tropical Medicine, has an agreement with USAID to manage the Global Health Fellow
Program, with the mandate to recruit and place mid to senior level professionals in international health
programs of the US government.
ACTIVITY:
PHI will recruit, hire and place a Global Health Fellow to work as part of the USG Haiti PEPFAR Team and
provide support in strategic information management. The position will be placed alongside the Country
Coordinator position and will provide support to the entire team, reporting to the Country Inter-Agency
Management Committee. The principal responsibilities of the incumbent will be:
•Active coordination with other donors on epidemiological surveillance
•Active involvement with the BSS and DHS surveys
•Active participation in the MOH Working Group on epidemiological surveillance and pro-active involvement
with the MOH to ensure that the PEPFAR-established service delivery information system is one and the
same as the MOH system (the "three ones" principle)
•Active coordination with other HIV/AIDS donors, principally the Global Fund, to track results reporting of
jointly funded implementing partners
•Active involvement and supervision of the joint PEPFAR/Global Fund Project Management Information
System
•Management oversight of the PHE activities implemented under the PEPFAR Country Operational Plan
(COP)
•Assist the Strategic Information Liaison with:
oCoordination and finalization of program targets for Table 2 and Table 3.3 of the annual COP
oCollection of semi-annual and annual partner data and preparation of report to OGAC
oAnalysis of semi-annual and annual report data to provide feedback to partners
oKeeping updated tables of PEFPAR indicator target and results, supported sites and persons trained.
