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 cooperative agreement with was awarded in FY 09 from FOA PS09-990. The activity was written into COP 09 as a TBD "PS-09-990" (mechanism ID: 12232.09, mechanism system ID: 12232). This mechanism is now being submitted in COP 10 as a continuing implementing mechanism with request for a new mechanism system ID.
The GoK is developing the national Monitoring and Evaluation framework following the recent finalization of the Kenya National AIDS Strategic Plan (KNASP-III). In order to cope with the rapid scale up of programs and the changing need for data at various levels, GoK and its partners, AMREF included, are developing strategies to strengthen national M&E systems. AMREF will provide technical assistance to the GoK and implementing partners on a variety of M&E activities. These include:
Developing and reviewing the 2009 -2013 National HIV/AIDS M&E framework
Developing an implementation plan for the M&E framework and supporting the GoK with the development and rollout of of tools for routine monitoring of HIV programs.
M&E technical assistance (e.g. for routine reporting of laboratory, community based programs and national TB data reporting) and institutionalizing data quality assessments to improve reporting and data use as health facilities.
M&E capacity building, including review of M&E capacity assessment reports, training and short courses to improve understanding of indicators, introductions to new/ revised tools and registers, data management, analysis, reporting and data use for decision making down to facility level.
Training of trainers (TOTs) at the national and provincial levels for M&E and program staff of NACC, NASCOP, the two Ministries of Health, AMREF, Afri Afya, and other implementing partners
The above efforts will greatly complement work by the GoK and other partners to strengthen health workers' capacity to collect, collate, analyze, report and use data to improve programs.
