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
Reprogramming August08: This activity was originally a TBD treatment partner. However, given the
shortfall in funds for pediatric treatment commodities, it was decided that the funds would be put to best use
to cover the shortfall in funding.
Although this activity appears as new, because no additional funding was added in FY2007, this is a
continuing activity from FY2006.
FY2008 funding will enable the new treatment services partner(s), who will receive initial funding through
COP06, to continue to deliver quality ART and related services into FY2008. The new partner(s) is (are)
slated to be selected through a limited competition RFA in early 2008. The coverage areas are not yet
known definitively but will coincide with the MOH scale up plan for treatment.

This is a new activity under COP09
The National Statistics Institute (INE) is planning a Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) in 2010. The
last DHS survey was conducted in 2002/3 and included behavioral questions designed to measure risk of
HIV infection but did not include a biomarker that would either allow population-based estimation of HIV
prevalence or comparison of infected and uninfected groups. Surveys are usually scheduled at 5 year
intervals, however due to competing priorities a 7 year delay is currently expected between DHS surveys in
Mozambique. A DHS survey with biomarker (DHS+) would target a nationally and provincially
representative sample of the adult and child population of Mozambique.
To date no national survey has included a biomarker to allow HIV prevalence estimation. An AIDS Indicator
Survey (AIS) including a biomarker is planned for early 2009 by the National Institute of Health (INS) and
will receive technical assistance from MACRO International with COP08 funding. Given that no such survey
has been completed to-date, and given the complexity of implanting national surveys with HIV testing,
technical assistance is currently required to ensure high quality results.
If INE decides to include a biomarker in the next DHS then this funding will be used to fund a partner
organization to provide technical assistance to INE to assist with all aspects of the survey related to
biomarker collection including ethics reviews, field staff training, sample collection, processing and
associated data processing, confidentiality protections and data analysis. It is highly likely that a biomarker
will not be collected during the 2010 DHS given that the AIS survey is planned for 2009. Possible reasons
why a biomarker would be collected, and hence why this funding would be required are a) if the AIS is not
completed, b) if the AIS does not achieve adequate test coverage to allow reliable estimates of HIV
prevalence, or c) due to a heavy survey calendar the DHS is delayed until 2011 or beyond, leading to a 2 or
more year gap between national serosurveys.
Inclusion of a biomarker in the survey would allow estimation of HIV and possibly other disease prevalence,
and possibly incidence, by sex, age group, province, and type of residence (urban/rural). It would also
create capacity at INE to handle biomarker-based surveys and integrate with the INS to manage sample
processing.

ACTIVITY UNCHANGED FROM FY2008.
September 2008 Reprogramming: Funding reduced by $6300.
Reprogramming August08: Funding increase $500,000. USAID will identify a suitable partner to provide
M&E assistance to the Ministry of Women, Children and Social Action (MMAS), as the COP review
indicated that UNICEF does not have the institutional mandate or profile to provide the type of TA required
by MMAS. Funds will be kept as TBD until a new partner is identified.
April08 Reporgramming Change: Reduced $150,000.
This is a continuing activity in COP08.
In FY07, a local consultant was hired to assist USAID with data collection, data quality analysis and on-site
monitoring of partner performance and compliance. Although a promising start a more comprehensive and
systematized approach is needed to provide the level of oversight and monitoring of USG partners as
intended and desired. PEPFAR South Africa has worked with a local partner to develop a web-based data
collection system for monitoring of their partners. PEPFAR Mozambique has increased the level of funding
in this field monitoring activity to permit a contract with this local partner to develop and provide such a
system for Mozambique and to identify partners to assist the USG team, and particularly the USAID
Mission, in providing adequate oversight and monitoring of implementation. No target populations have
been selected, because this is a strategic information activity focused on systems development and data
quality, collection and reporting.
The narrative below from FY2007 has not been updated.
This activity is in support of the strategic information priorities to ensure the quality and accessibility of data
for PEPFAR planning and reporting purposes.
The USG SI team proposes to allocate funding for a yet to be determined partner to assist the USG team in
conducting Data Quality Auditing (DQA) among USG partners working in Mozambique, with emphasis on
those partners working on community-based programs. DQA is a validated tool in the monitoring and
evaluation (M&E) field that has been successfully adapted for use within USAID programs to monitor
partner performance. Most importantly, this activity will allow the USG to assure the quality of a specific
partner's data management practices as well as the data itself. Additionally, we see DQAs as a means for
building capacity among partners to improve data management and reporting systems. Because of this
latter reason, the USG team is prioritizing partners working on community-based programs, including home-
based care, orphans and vulnerable children and sexual prevention, which have systematically identified
reporting challenges owing to large turnovers of staff, a workforce consisting largely of unskilled volunteers,
and the challenge of collecting data in communities where M&E reporting is not routine.
