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.

This project aims to strengthen capacity, systems and institutions -- at national level and across 35 states and Union Territories -- to generate and use strategic information for delivering HIV prevention, treatment and care programmes effectively. Interventions will be targeted for specific key stakeholders including SI/M&E staff and programmers of NACO and State AIDS Control Societies (SACS). The objectives are: 1) facilitating evidence informed decision making for effective HIV programming at decentralized implementation levels, by supporting generation of quality data; and 2) strengthening programmers’ and implementers’ capacities to generate, disseminate and utilize data and information under the third National AIDS Control Program/NACP III (and NACP IV).
The project shares a common vision with PEPFAR/India’s Strategy for supporting availability of quality data and evidence, and data use in decision-making processes (Goal 2), and increasing human capacity to design, plan and monitor HIV services (Goal 4).
UNAIDS collaborates and seeks opportunities for cost-sharing with a range of SI partners to maximize technical collaboration and cost efficiency, including important investments of GOI.
The project will build core competencies of GOI staff to sustain these investments. Discussions are already underway with NACO to secure integration of the project’s activities within NACP IV to ensure its sustainability.
Technical background documents and operational plans will be developed for all activities. Activity implementation will be closely monitored to ensure that deliverables/targets are achieved in terms of numbers, profiles, and geographical distribution of people trained.
