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.

One of the OVC RFA- Support to Nyanza and Rift Valley awards was made to Life Skills Promoters (LISP). The award targeted local organizations in Kenya to carry out orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) activities, and thus directly supports PEPFARs goal of working with local organizations and USAIDs Implementation of Procurement Reform (IPR) Objective 2 - Local Capacity Development, which focuses on building partnerships with new and local partners in development to improve the capacity and sustainability of the local community thereby improving aid effectiveness.
With funding from USAID, Wezesha Project mobilizes and scales-up community-based responses to meet the needs of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC). The project works with local implementing partners, including non-governmental, faith- and community-based organizations as well as relevant Government of Kenya Ministries including the Ministries of Labor, Social Security and Services, Health, Education, Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries. The Wezesha project uses a sustainable and family-centered approach to meeting the basic needs of OVCs, regardless of faith. The project supports community health workers to conduct local needs assessments and develop realistic plans for improving household incomes, which allows families to better serve as primary caregivers to OVCs. Community health workers provide counseling, health information, referrals and resources to address health needs.
Complementary activities strengthen child protection structures in targeted communities that improve psychosocial care in schools and increase vocational skills.
