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 activity is related to activity number 8549. In this activity support will be given to the MoH in efforts to increase access to TB culture and drug susceptibility diagnostic services for the country. Capacity building of staff in the TB reference laboratory through on the job training mentorship program. In this program a technical expert in TB reference lab practice, will be stationed in the lab for a continuous period of four months, involved in the daily routine of the lab. A second activity will be to provide assistance to the labs in Nampula and Beira to start up the regional reference labs in Beira and Nampula for the Centre and North of the country respectively.
This activity is related to activities 8632, 8546 and 8581 and contributes to the strengthening of the laboratory network in Mozambique.
There are several components to this activity which include:
1) Train laboratory technicians and scientist in standard lab practice in the field of hematology, biochemistry, CD4 testing and microbiology.
2) Develop and implement a training and mentorship program for laboratory technicians in all provincial and district hospital laboratories that have been rehabilitated and provided with laboratory equipment through efforts of other Emergency plan funded partners. This component will support training of 60 laboratory technicians from all provinces in the country.
3) Develop and disseminate standard laboratory operating procedures for hematology, biochemistry, CD4 and immunology and definition of services to be offered at the various levels of laboratories in the health system.
4) Continue providing technical assistance to the Immunology department at the INS in the Quality Assurance program for HIV Serology.
5) Develop infant laboratory testing algorithms and pilot DBS testing: This activity will support travel and technical assistance (TA) provided by a Brazilian Laboratory expert. In FY06 the laboratory expert has helped the MOH NIH, PMTCT and pediatric treatment staff to develop the algorithm for infant testing for Mozambique, using Dried Blood Spot (DBS) samples for PCR laboratory diagnosis. The Brazilian expert helped to train Mozambican laboratory staff on the use of the first PCR machine installed in Mozambique at the NIH laboratory and conducted a first training for pediatricians on DBS
