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.
Reprogramming August08: Funding decrease by$400,000.
HIV/AIDS has been a cross cutting theme in the design, implementation, and evaluation of FS activities,
along with gender, capacity building, and monitoring and evaluation, since the beginning of the project,
which has been supported by development assistance monies until now. The PEPFAR team is requesting
the addition a new activity for Forte Saude to undertake a number of activities that directly correlate to the
prevention of mother-to-child transmission services within ante-natal care settings and the reproductive
health program overall. The work of Forte Saude with PEPFAR funds can be broken down into three areas,
they are: technical assistance, training, and quality improvement.
Technical assistance will be provided by Forte Saude to the Government of Mozambique in the
development of policies, strategies and guidelines in the areas of RH and CH, including components of
Nutrition, Malaria and Epidemics and support for adoption, dissemination and implementation in the target
provinces. FS will also continue in its leadership role and assist the Ministry of Health in finalizing the
translation and adaptation of cervical cancer training materials, including infection prevention aspects.
Finally, support the development of guides and materials for expanding the SRH/CH quality improvement
process, including HIV/AIDS prevention and PMTCT within the provinces where FS is already working.
These materials will support the central and the provincial level of MOH to implement the expansion of the
quality improvement process
Forte Saude will undertake a wide array of training activities. FS will assist and ensure the organization of
two clinical update courses on MNH, including PMTCT, for health professionals from 18 health units and six
DPS involved on the quality improvement process (total of 54 participants). Clinical updates need to be
provided to health workers to ensure they have the knowledge and skills to carry out their work in SRH and
NCH services delivery within the context of the quality improvement process. These updates are usually
refreshers. FS will assist the MOH determine what updates are necessary and subsequently with the
development of the materials.
Forte Saude will provide assistance to strengthen the information and communication technologies and
monitoring and evaluation in the areas of Reproductive Health (RH), Child Health (CH), Expanded Program
of Immunization, nutrition and malaria, at the central level and in the target provinces of Sofala, Manica,
Nampula, and Zambezia, Gaza, and Maputo. FORTE Saúde has been working with the MOH (specifically
the Dept of Prevention and Health Promotion) to develop a plan of action to improve the quality of Sexual
and Reproductive Health (SRH) and Neonatal and Child Health Services (NCH). The Quality Improvement
(QI) process is based on standards (Standards-Based Management and Recognition program developed by
JHPIEGO). FS has been actively engaged with the Ministry of Health in the development of quality
standards for SRH and NCH services delivery based on national policies, guidelines and protocols including
measurement instruments. FS, using PEPFAR funds will conclude with the implementation of Module III,
which aims to consolidate health teams' abilities to implement the QI process and evaluate progresses in
their facilities; addresses ways to sustain this momentum. Technical support for implementation through
supervision of the health facilities and strengthening local PVOs' abilities to provide local - based technical
assistance (TA). This includes TA for health facilities to establish their QI baselines, development of health
facility action plans to improve quality, and carrying out their first internal progress evaluation and
subsequent assessments.
