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: 2010 2011 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
AMURT is a local organization implementing OVC activities in Bondo and Rarieda in Siaya Counties. The ICOP project is expected to reach a total of 3,000 households and 11,000 OVC by the end of the project. In COP 14, the target is to reach 6,100 OVC. The project works with Local Implementing Partners (LIPs) as well as relevant GoK ministries, including Ministries of Labor, Social Security and Services, Health, Education, Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries. The project uses a sustainable and family centered approach to meet the basic needs to OVCs regardless of faith. The main focus is on targeted household economic strengthening and food security through vulnerability assessments and integrating HES activities with parenting and income promotion. Complementary activities strengthen child protection structures in targeted communities that improve psychosocial care and the established structures that address emerging child protection issues for both in and out of school children. Efforts to address gender inequalities and gender based violence are integrated into the project. Out of school OVC are supported in vocational training using an apprenticeship approach to ensure they become self-reliant and able to supplement the household income. The project is using the standard tools for OVC data collection and the OVC Longitudinal Management Information System (OLMIS). ICOP is ensuring that they implement within the GoK OVC Minimum Service Standards which reinforces the need for OVC projects to ensure access for OVC to essential services and emphasizes the following core areas: education, health and nutrition, PSS, social protection, child protection and HES support to households taking care of OVC as well as capacity and system strengthening.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
