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: 2011 2012 2013 2014
Goal: To strengthen the capacity in Kenya to collect, manage& use M&E and surveillance data to manage national HIV/AIDS response by expanding HIV/STI/TB surveillance projects and strengthening laboratory support for surveillance, diagnosis, treatment, disease monitoring and HIV screening for blood safety. bjectives: Tto strengthen capacity of healthcare workers on M&E including data management, analysis, reporting and use for decision making
Support review/development and roll-out of HIV/AIDS M&E guidelines, SOPs and curriculum together with national tools roll-out Strengthen M&E coordination and collaboration at the national, provincial and district levels Support the improvement of HIV data quality
Support KAIS II logistics
Cost-efficiency strategy: Use of TOTs selected from the decentralized levels to cascade the M&E training down to facility/ community levels; a mix of on-job mentoring and classroom training; one-time printing of the guidelines and curriculum to be posted to a web for cheaper referencing and joint planning with the government and other partners. KAIS II will utilize experience from KAIS I to avoid unnecessary expenses. Transition to country partners:Main M&E training activities planned and implemented in close collaboration with NASCOP and other Implementing partners. KAIS II taskforce and technical working groups have membership from all health/HIV/AIDS stakeholders in the country including UN, government, development and implementing partners besides USG making both technical and financial and other in-kind contributions.
Vehicle information:1, 5-seater, 2350 CC, Mitsubuishi Pajero, manufactured in 2011, purchased in May, 2011. The vehicle will be used to support training & supervision activities. This activity support GHI/LLC.
As the national HIV program continues to scale up prevention, care and treatment programs, AMREF will continue to provide Monitoring and Evaluation capacity building TA to the GOK and PEPFAR implementing partners to strengthen existing M&E capacity in the country. Also important will be the provision of logistical support to the planning, implementation, analysis, and dissemination of the Kenya AIDS Indicator Survey (KAIS) II. KAIS II is a national survey of high priority which is designed to provide high quality data on HIV prevalence, incidence, HIV-related risk behaviours, service uptake, service delivery, and indicators for other diseases in the general population. Other specific objectives for AMREF will focus on general improvement of national HIV/AIDS M&E capacity building. The Monitoring and evaluation capacity building approaches applied for these activities are fairly generic and will overlap with areas of interest under the Global Health Initiative and US Ambassadors Health Task force initiative in Kenya, including data collection, management, data quality assessments (DQAs) from other priority areas and support for one national M&E system.
During year 2 of this award (Oct. 2010 Sep. 2011), AMREF Implemented the following major activities: 1) Development of national HIV/AIDS M&E curriculum, guidelines and standard operation procedures; 2) Health care worker training in priority M&E themes including data management, data management software and data quality assessments; 3) Continued support to PHMTs and DHMTs in quarterly data use forums in 3 regions within the country.
Activities planned for using COP 12 resources are:
(i)
Train Implementing partners and GOK strategic Information officers on Monitoring and Evaluation courses on a needs basis including PEPFAR reporting requirements. This activity, initially implemented by University of Nairobis PSRI will be implemented by this partner for the first time during COP2012
(ii)
Printing and distribution of the new HIV/AIDS national M&E curriculum, guidelines and Standard operating procedures.
(iii)
Continue with the roll-out of healthcare workers training in the use of the new national HIV/AIDS M&E curriculum, guidelines and standard operating procedures
(iv)
Support quarterly data review at the district and regional levels.
(v)
Provision of logistical support to KAIS II, including recruitment and training of survey and laboratory teams, procure and maintenance of vehicles for field work, implement survey in the field, transport specimens to central laboratory among others.
Quarterly work plans and review meetings with clear milestones will be used to monitor AMREFs performance towards the realization of set objectives. Numerical targets will be used where appropriate.
