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
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.
The National Blood Transfusion service (NBTS) will contribute to prevention of HIV transmission through provision of safe blood in Kenya. This will be accomplished through collection, testing, processing and distribution of blood to health facilities and support for appropriate use. This is in keeping with the Kenya National AIDS Strategic Plan (KNASP-III) goal of eliminating HIV transmission in healthcare settings. This will also contribute to Global Health Initiative (GHI) goals of reducing maternal, infant and malaria-related mortality and PEPFAR Blueprint goal of smart investments -promoting sustainability, efficiency and effectiveness as well as an AIDS free generation.
This mechanism has national coverage targeting blood donors aged 16 to 65 years.
NBTS will align itself to the new Kenyan constitution, positioning itself as a national body serving all Counties. It will develop a sustainable health financing system that will tap into national and county resources, multilateral partners and public-private-partnerships. NBTS will ensure cost-efficiency through improved financial management system, efficient automated blood testing and processing and use of blood components and pediatric packs. NBTS will leverage HIV prevention programs to develop a pool of safe regular donors and will use modern technology such as SMS to communicate.
This is a Ministry of Health department with country ownership and leadership.
Monitoring and evaluation:
NBTS will provide semi-annual and annual progress reports as required by PEPFAR while implementing their M&E strategic plan. The M&E system will be strengthened utilizing an information management system and data to enhance program efficiency.
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.
This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
