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.
NEW ACTIVITY NARRATIVE
BACKGROUND
The National AIDS Control Program Phase-III (NACP-III) started in 2007 and will continue until 2012. Most
of the budgetary requirements have been planned and are being implemented in a phased manner.
However, if the proposed targets of NACP-III are to be met, technical assistance (TA) to the National AIDS
Control Organization (NACO) will be needed. This is the key area of expertise of the combined USG
PEPFAR program. Recognizing USG's expertise in this area, many requests from the national and state
governments have been received by the USG team for assistance. Prioritizing these requests, CDC will
provide on-going support in its areas of technical expertise and has demonstrated successful models that
can be replicated at state and national levels.
ACTIVITIES AND EXPECTED RESULTS
The geographic focus for these collaborative activities will be the states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh,
North-East and any other mutually identified and emerging priority geographical areas
ACTIVITY 1: Laboratory Strengthening
Laboratory testing plays a key role in managing an HIV/AIDS control program across the whole spectrum of
this infection/disease (prevention, care and treatment). Thus it is essential to have reliable and valid
laboratory tests available to support various phases of the program. CDC will focus on strengthening the
quality of HIV testing in all NACO-designated laboratories for this purpose, and in coordination with NACO,
SACS, and other partners. Activities will include:
1. Assessment and strengthening of national reference laboratories
2. Support to NACO's Laboratory Services Working Group
3. Provide support for External Quality Assessment System (EQAS)
4. Specific training in laboratory services
5. Support for documentation and the Logistics Management Information System (LMIS)

North-East and any other mutually identified and emerging priority geographical areas.
ACTIVITY 1: Strategic Information Management and Planning
This activity will respond to requests to assist with training, planning, and analysis for surveillance,
Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) and data quality assurance. Specific requests for TA that have been
identified include:
1. Provide TA for needs assessment, working with the NACO SI Officer
2. Follow up on triangulation workshops held for NACO in 2008
3. Support to NACO M&E Working Group
4. Provide TA on estimation modeling
5. Provide TA for sentinel surveillance

models that can be replicated at national or state level.
ACTIVITY 1: Human Capacity Development (HCD)
NACO has requested support in Human Capacity Development in the following areas:
1. Support NACO/SACS the planning, implementation and evaluation of all NACO trainings, thus
strengthening the quality of all NACO-sponsored trainings
2. Provide technical assistance for strategic planning at the national, state, and district levels to support the
rollout of HIV/AIDS services and activities
3. Training for nurses in HIV/AIDS
4. Streamline and strengthen ongoing Human Capacity Development activities at the national, state, and
district levels.
ACTIVITY 2: Transition Support to Community and Home Based Care (CHBC) and Support Program
1. Provide technical assistance to the CHBC program at six locations in five states
2. TA for project documentation and the development and dissemination of operational manuals
3. TA support to community-based organizations to scale up a Home-Based Care program.
