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: 2008 2009
This is a continuing activity in COP08.
This is the continuation of activity 9123.07 through the BUCEN-SCILS mechanism, entered here as a new
activity because it will be implemented through the follow-on agreement between USAID Global Health
Bureau, Office of HIV and the Census Bureau. The INCAM mortality survey is currently being carried out in
the field (September, 2007). FY08 funding will be used to expand the scope of the data demand and
information use activities. No target population was selected because this is a survey and data analysis
activity.
The narrative below from FY2007 has not been updated.
The purpose of this activity is to strengthen Mozambique's national capacity to generate and use reliable
mortality statistics, with a focus on HIV/AIDS and malaria, using validated verbal autopsy procedures. It will
be implemented in collaboration with Mozambique's Presidential Malaria Initiative (PMI).
Through the provision of technical and field support by MEASURE and Bureau of Census (BUCEN)
(described in Activity X), Mozambique will conduct a mortality survey (called INCAM) in follow-up to the
2007 National Census. INCAM will determine the levels of HIV and malaria mortality over the previous
twelve months as initially reported during the Census. A total population of approximately 844,000 residents
in all 11 provinces will be covered by the INCAM survey. This survey, which will be implemented by
National Institute of Statistics (INE) with assistance from the Ministry of Health (MoH) and the Center for
Health Investigation in Manhiça (CISM), can also strengthen the country's overall health information system
by providing estimates of several additional mortality indicators, e.g. tuberculosis mortality, infant and child
mortality, and maternal mortality. The INE Pilot Census, which will be conducted in October-November
2006—one year before the actual Census, will include a Pilot Mortality Survey to ensure logistic and
economic feasibility. MEASURE and BUCEN are financing this activity through the FY06 COP.
To implement the full INCAM, FY07 funding is being requested for BUCEN to provide six technical visits by
two key statisticians. Primary objectives of the work will be to assist INE and the MoH to refine processes
and procedures based on pilot survey results and provide oversight and assistance. Specifically, they will
oversee the sampling framework for the survey, develop the data system to support entry of INCAM forms,
ensure data quality of collected data, and assist INE and the MoH in the analysis and production of reports.
An additional component of the INCAM will be a focus on data demand and information utilization. BUCEN,
along with MEASURE, is assisting INE to develop indicator packages and data use calendars for national
and sub-national use. These tools are based on the requirements of local, regional, and national
government, as well as the needs of development partners. Upon completion of the INCAM, this activity will
support INE and other stakeholders in staging workshops funded via MEASURE to help stakeholders
understand and use the HIV/AIDS, malaria and other cause-specific mortality information, and communicate
their findings to policymakers.
