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.
This new activity will support the implementation of male circumcision services in Malawi over the final four years of the Partnership Framework. The RFP will be written in 2010 after Malawi has drafted more definitive male circumcision policy, and will be sent to PEPFAR HQ for input and review.
Given that the BLM circumcision activity (see BLM narrative) will emphasize support for circumcision in the private sector (although some clinicians in the public sector will also be trained and supported through this agreement), the TBD circumcision activity will have more of an emphasis on the public sector, supporting the MOH providers and facilities to roll-out circumcision nationally. Since $9 million is currently budgeted in the GFATM NSA for circumcision, the contract will be designed in a specific way to complement these resources.
Innovative approaches being used by BLM such as the use of vouchers to reimburse providers will also be scaled-up within the TBD project if they are proved to be successful. For the purposes for target setting for this TBD COP entry, a fully-loaded cost based upon UNIADS estimates of $35 per circumcision has been utilized and targets are applied for only 9 months, allowing 3 months for project start-up. However, it is anticipated that once the project is up and running, economies of scale will enable the cost to be substantially lower than this in years 2-4. The COP entry will be revised and submitted in more detail to HQ.
