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.

Summary The PEPFAR Gender Initiative on Girls' Vulnerability to HIV has been developed as part of a set of PEPFAR special gender initiatives. The program aims to prevent HIV infection among 13-19 year old girls by developing innovative program interventions to 1) modify contextual factors associated with increased sexual risk behavior and rates of HIV infection; and 2) assess the feasibility and effectiveness of these interventions and their potential for sustainability, scale-up, and transferability to other settings. Botswana, Malawi and Mozambique are the three countries selected for this Initiative.
Background Many PEPFAR programs reach adolescent girls through broad-reaching AB prevention activities that focus on HIV education in church and school settings. However, these programs often do not reach those at highest risk, who commonly are found outside of these settings. Those at highest risk need to be reached with a package of comprehensive services, including economic strengthening activities, to meet their unique needs. In addition, many OVC programs focus on younger children and overlook the needs of adolescent orphans, even though this latter group represents a significant proportion of all orphans. This Initiative seeks to address these programming gaps by implementing and evaluating promising integrated models to reach highly vulnerable adolescent girls with comprehensive services tailored to their particular needs.
The goal of the Malawi Go Girls! Initiaitve is to prevent HIV infection in the most vulnerable adolescent girls. The objectives are: 1) To identify and expand promising new and existing program approaches for addressing the contextual factors which place some adolescent girls at especially high risk of HIV; and 2) To evaluate the feasibility, sustainability, and effectiveness of these interventions and their potential for adaptation and scale-up to other settings. Initiative activities will be closely linked with other prevention and OVC activities, as well as relevant wrap-around programming. JHU will fund a small sub contract with a local partner to enable the project to expand its depth within the project communities. Areas coverdinthe sub award will include enagaing district, faith and community
leaders in advocay andcollective action to reduce girls' vulnerability to HIV infection; promoting parent- child dialogue and access to youth friendly services, education services, micro credit/IGAs for girls and providing trainings in lifeskills. Interventions will aim at discouraging early marriage for girls and mobilizing comunities to take action to adress vulnerability to HIV infection for young married girls who are within the target group's age arange. Underlying this theme will be interventions and messaging to dealy sexual debut, abstain from sex, promote condom use and promoting a conducive and supportive environment to positively enforce and reward positive behaviour.
