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.

1. LIST OF RELATED ACTIVITIES.
This activity is related to Strategic Information activities of the University of North Carolina/APHIA II
Evaluation, NASCOP, and USAID/TBD.
2. ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION:
This activity has several components: (1) In 2006-2007, through USAID/W core funds, PRB assisted
NCAPD in creating a stakeholder task force devoted to PHE linkages and in conducting an assessment of
current policies and programs that focus on PHE initiatives. PRB proposes conducting a one-week
workshop with NCAPD, NEMA, the MOH and other partners on Communicating Environmental Research to
Policymakers: Exploring Population, Health and Environment Linkages. The objective of the workshop will
be to train stakeholders to maximize policymakers' and planners' use of project and research results that
illustrate the interaction of population, health and environment variables. The workshop will be designed for
researchers, program managers, and others responsible for formulating and implementing environmental
programs. Participants will develop a policy-level communication strategy and action plan; design a media
strategy; and develop short policy documents and presentations, among other outputs. 20 policy makers
and planners from GOK and USG partners will be trained.
In the second component of this activity, PRB will tailor its successful policy communication and data use
training program to focus on HIV/AIDS. This will build capacity of population and health professionals in
RH/HIV/AIDS policy communication and data use skills. This will be achieved through conducting 2 - two-
week workshops hosted by NCAPD (and partner PSRI staff) each for 15-25 population and health
professionals from the public and private sectors. The training is designed to help participants increase the
use of research and survey findings for the improvement of policies and programs in HIV/AIDS.
3. CONTRIBUTIONS TO OVERALL PROGRAM AREA
This activity builds on the FY 2006 activities that support the national M&E systems as well as contributing
to the Emergency Plan's efforts to build local capacity in M&E. The activity will strengthen the capacity of 20
local organizations in strategic information in addition to supporting the training of 50 population and health
professionals in data use for policy formulation and program management.
4. LINKS TO OTHER ACTIVITIES
This first component of the activity is related to the strategic information activity to be carried out by
University of North Carolina/APHIA II Evaluation (#####), where APHIA II Evaluation will be supporting
NACC in rolling out COBPAR system for community level reporting. It is also related to the strategic
information to be carried out by NASCOP (#####), where NASCOP will be rolling out Form 726, Form 727
and program specific client registers for data collection and reporting at health facilities. It is also related to
USAID/TBD (#####), that will attempt to harmonize mortality estimates methodologies and SAVVY systems
in 5 DSS sites in Kenya.
5. POPULATIONS BEING TARGETED
This activity targets senior host government planning and policy formulation workers, and strategic
information point persons working for USG and implementing partners.
6. EMPHASIS AREAS:
The major emphasis is strategic information (M&E, HMIS, Survey/Surveillance, Reporting), while the minors
include human capacity building and local organization capacity building
THIS IS A NEW ACTIVITY WITH AN EXISTING PARTNER WITHIN THE SAME PROGRAM AREA.
1. LIST OF RELATED ACTIVITIES
This activity is linked to other Policy Analysis and System Strengthening activities, Strategic Information
activities as well as all APHIA II activities.
2. ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
This activity will support the systematic documentation of best practices and lessons learned from
Emergency Plan initiatives. It will develop protocols for disseminating and sharing knowledge among
different actors, implementers and stakeholders. Regular knowledge sharing workshops will be supported
which will also serve as vehicles for coordination and cooperation. Assistance to develop and use various
types of information technology will be provided. This activity will support the development and maintenance
of list serves and websites.
3. CONTRIBUTION TO OVERALL PROGRAM AREA
This activity will bolster sustainability by fostering coordination and cooperation through sharing of
knowledge and best-practices among Emergency Plan partners.
activities as well as all APHIA II activities
5. EMPHASIS AREA
This activity will support knowledge-sharing among Emergency Plan projects to more effectively
disseminate operating policies and best practices in systems strengthening.
