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: 2008 2009
THIS IS AN ONGOING ACTIVITY. THE NARRATIVE IS UNCHANGED EXCEPT FOR UPDATED
REFERENCES TO TARGETS AND BUDGETS.
The only changes to the program since approval in the 2007 COP are:
• Geographic coverage has been revised to include 5 more districts recently created when the government
split the existing districts. The project area thus has 21 districts up from 16. However, the final confirmation
of some of the newly created districts is still to be finalized as the creation of the new districts has been
disputed in some places. ADRA ABY project however, will still continue operating in the same 16 districts it
has been working in.
1. LIST OF RELATED ACTIVITIES
ADRA works within the districts coordinated by the National AIDS Control Council (NACC).

and 2.5 million youth 10-24 years of age indirectly through mass media by September 2009.
In FY 2008, the ABY project will continue partnering with 20 FBOs and 32 CBOs in project implementation.

learned.
3. CONTRIBUTIONS TO OVERALL PROGRAM AREA
ADRA ABY programs will contribute to two areas, namely: "Knowledge on HIV and AIDS transmission and
prevention increased" and "Young people 15-24 years of age who correctly identify ways of preventing
sexual transmission and who reject major misconceptions about HIV transmission".
4. LINKS TO OTHER ACTIVITIES
ADRA works within the districts coordinated by the National AIDS Control Council (NACC). The project also
collaborates and works under the policy guidelines of four relevant Government Ministries: Ministry of
Education (MOE), Ministry of Health (MOH), Ministry of Gender, Sports and Social Services (MGSSS) and
the newly established Ministry of Youth Affairs (MOY). ADRA ABY project activities relate to capacity
enhancement of partner FBOs and CBOs to address abstinence and develop programs to involve youth in
the context of empowerment and poverty reduction. The project has prepared an inventory of major social
events in the communities where Trainers of Trainers (TOTs) and theater groups are facilitated to
disseminate AB messages.
5. POPULATIONS BEING TARGETED
The project targets young people aged 10 to 24 years as primary targets. Adults are also targeted as a
secondary target.
6. KEY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES ADDRESSED
ADRA trains and supports volunteer PLWHAs from partner FBOs in conducting community outreach as
change agents.
7. EMPHASIS AREAS
The main activities include training, community outreach, media (mass and folk media) activities,
procurement and distribution of IEC materials on AB, adolescent reproductive health messages to schools,
FBOs and CBOs. Youth are trained on abstinence, life skills, and HIV and AIDS. Adults are trained on
parent-child communication; and community and religious leaders are trained on public presentation skills,
while CBOs are trained on participatory theatre.
