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.

Goals and Objectives-
The overall goal of this new program, which will build upon the successes and lessons learned of previous school-based initiatives, is to provide students, teachers and education managers in targeted areas with the knowledge and skills that will lead to reduced incidences of new HIV infections, as well as improve the care of those already affected or infected with HIV and AIDS. The program expects to engage in the following areas: improve HIV prevention behavior among the learners; alleviate gender based violence; equip learners with psychosocial competencies that will improve their decision making processes; increase the level of parental monitoring and support to the HIV prevention education program; prevent HIV and AIDS and other Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) through Information, Education, Communication (IEC) and Behavior Change Communication; equip students and teachers in the targeted schools with accurate information on HIV and AIDS, abstinence, drugs and substance abuse, to help them make right decisions and avoid irresponsible behaviors; provide quality, comprehensive services to at least 500 HIV-infected or affected Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs) with a focus on increased enrollment, retention and academic performance through provision of School Support Block Grants; and strengthen the coordination of the HIV and AIDS education programs by working with civil society organizations on the implementation of the guidelines for district HIV and AIDS education coordination.
How does this link to Partnership Framework Goals-
This programs is directly linked to the U.S Government and Government of Kenya partnership framework sub-objective 2/3.2.3 that seeks to increase coverage and quality of HIV-related services to reach at least 400,000 orphans and vulnerable children; sub-objective 2/3.2.1 that seeks to train at least 250,000 with Life Skills Education Training and sub-objective 2/3.1.5 that seeks to develop mass media campaigns to support community prevention.
Geographic coverage and target populations-
The HIV and Life Skills Education project will be implemented in Nairobi and Nyanza provinces. The project will target populations aged 15 49 years.
Cross-cutting programs and key issues-
This program will strengthen the implementation of the Kenya Education Sector Support Program; HIV and AIDS investment plant, particularly in the implementation of the Education Sector Policy on HIV and AIDS. This program has a cross-cutting budgetary attribution in the area of education. Almost 80% of the budget will contribute towards formal education of the primary and secondary school learners.
A plan for collecting, evaluating, and validating data which will be used to measure overall progress and compare status over time will be developed. The program will develop performance indicators and targets, and show how baseline measurements can be established to assess the impact of proposed interventions. The implementer is also expected to use the new generation indicators proposed under the PEPFAR New Generation Indicator Guidance. The performance monitoring plan must also include an explanation of how data and information will be collected, analyzed, used, and verified, and the cost effectiveness of such activities. Mid-term evaluation will be conducted in addition to end of term evaluation. At the program level performance will be verified by field visits and periodic special surveys. Monitoring and evaluation findings will provide useful guidance for any necessary adjustment of the program approach. Tracer and tracking studies will also be initiated to assess the impact of the program.

The project will support the training of 14,200 individuals on HIV and AIDS prevention through abstinence and/or being faithful.
