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.

The UNICEF/USAID OVC collaboration is focused on systems support to the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Welfare (MoGCSW). With USAID support, UNICEF has supported the ministry to undertake an Impact Evaluation of the 2005-2009/2010-2011 National Plan of Action (NPA) for OVC, is undertaking a Situation Analysis of OVC that will inform the development of a new costed NPA for the period 2014-2018 and a M & E framework to support the NPA.Through this project, USAID will focus its support in three specific areas: (i). Social Cash Transfer program; (ii). The Child Protection System with a focus on 10 districts, (iii) support to critical events that support the implementation of the National Plan of Action for 2014-2018. Through these efforts, MoGCSWs capacity will be strengthened to provide the requisite leadership at national and district level in coordinating the national response for OVC.
HKID funds will be used for a USAID/UNICEF collaboration to support the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Welfare (MoGCSW) with a focus on three key system strengthening elements that impact on OVC and households looking after OVC.
The first key element will focus on strengthening district level processes that support that support the National Cash Transfer Program, including but not limited to (i). Strengthening the Social Cash Transfer Programs linkages with other sectors such as education and other social services at the district level, (ii). Reinforcing information and communication on the Cash Transfer program on a continuous basis for caregivers so that health needs and feeding practices of OVC are met (iii). Strengthening referral systems at the district level so that issues at the household level are flagged to extension workers and Health Surveillance Assistants, and (iv). Strengthening district level coordination including the use of technology such as GIS and (v). Increasing the engagement of local CBOs and CSOs in monitoring and supporting the implementation of the Social Cash Transfer program.HKID funds will also be used to support Malawis Child Protection System with specific activities that focus on (i). Testing and operationalization of a comprehensive child protection system in 10 target districts; (ii). Case management of abuse incidences in the target districts. The third element of this support will include Policy level engagement and support to critical events including but not limited to sector level review processes etc in support of the new Plan of Action for OVC that USAID is currently supporting.
