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.
Years of mechanism: 2012 2013 2014
This mechanism provides technical assistance (TA) to the National AIDS Control Program (NACP) in strategic information (SI) policy, decision making and planning. Objectives are: 1) Strengthening national and sub-national capacity in SI including surveillance, estimations and projections, state-based modeling, district-level profiling by data triangulation, improving data management; and monitoring and evaluation (M&E); 2) Strengthening national capacity in HIV drug resistance surveillance and monitoring including improved routine monitoring of ART and PMTCT program outcomes; and 3) Strengthening operations research (OR) capacities. The objectives support Goal 2 (data for decision making) of the PEPFAR/India strategy.
USG funding supports 3 National Program Officers for the World Health Organization/India Country Office (WHO/India) to provide TA at the national level to build capacity at national, state and district level in SI and to institutionalize capacities in information management and evidence based policy making at state level. Capacity-building activities are expected to continue through 2017 to support full roll-out of improvements and newer methodologies for HIV surveillance (e.g. HIV case reporting and high risk group surveillance). The project provides TA, while all surveillance activities are funded by GOI. During this period, states will be capacitated to analyze and triangulate their own data, to enable improved policy and program implementation, with technical support and leadership/guidance from the national level.
As project key achievements will be based on the outputs of the NACP in implementing the proposed activities, progress will be monitored through reports of relevant activities conducted by the national program.
