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. ACTIVITY HAS BEEN MODIFIED IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS.
Africare will not expand activities to districts in Sofala with field support funds. Though Africare Track 1
Agreement will go through 2010, Mission has not included field support for this agreement in FY09 as
Manica province will have an RFA posted for OVC services in January 2009.
This is a continuing activity under COP08. With additional funds allocated to this Track 1 agreement, via
field support (see activity narrative 9110.08), Africare will be able to provide supplemental direct support to
an additional 50,000 OVC.
The program will partner with WFP to support the nutritional needs of the most vulnerable OVC and their
families through provision of short term emergency food support. Please refer to the activity sheet for WFP
for funding levels and targets. In collaboration with PSI, Africare will distribute LLIN and Safe Water
Systems (SWS - "Certeza") to OVC in an effort to improve the health status of targeted children and family
members.
The FY2007 narrative below has not been updated.
This activity is related to USAID_HKID_Africare_Activity# 9110.
Africare has been an active partner in OVC programming from the beginning of PEPFAR under Track 1
funding. They have had the only OVC program in Manica Province, which is located on the main road to
Zimbabwe, in the highly infected Beira Corridor. Africare works with 42 Community Care Committees
which help to identify needy OVC and to assist them in care and support services. They also have 13 FBOs
and 2 CBOs as current sub-partners. To date, Africare has reached 21,616 OVC which is well on their way
to accomplishing their goal of 34,444 by end of fiscal year 2006. In addition 1,486 of a targeted 1,500
caregivers have already been trained.
Africare provides OVC with the package 6 essential services through community support, wrap around
services, collaborative programming and working with local government offices. The Africare OVC program
takes advantage of their sister USAID project in food security through the development and collaborative
support of community farm fields. Here older OVC learn how to plant, care and harvest several types of
food and benefit from consumption and sale of these food stuffs. Block grants are provided to 10 schools in
the area. These small grants offer funding in support of the entire school program in exchange for free
schooling for the OVC. During the last report period, Africare trained 30 headmasters, PTA presidents and
local parents from the 10 schools in the school grants program. Working with the local offices of civil
registration allows Africare to acquire ID cards for their school children. Africare is also working with Habitat
for Humanity (a Track 1 recipient) which builds houses for OVC, particularly households headed by the
elderly or are orphaned themselves.
In an attempt to improve the M&E system of the OVC program, Africare engaged 25 "Service Corps
Volunteers" who work as supervisors in 25 communities. They received a 5 day training on program
management, community strengthening, HIV/AIDS education and monitoring and evaluation. Thus, the
monitoring and reporting instruments have been re-designed and are more user friendly. This should result
in more accurate reports and ways of identifying concerns and opportunities in each community. Data
analysis and reporting should also be strengthened due to further training in electronic data collection,
storage and analysis.
The COP07 activities will allow Africare to continue activities being implemented under Africare's Track 1
award and mission supplement. These activities will provide continued care, support and protection for
OVC and their caregivers by strengthening the capacity of families to cope with their problems and
increasing the capacity of children and young people to meet their own needs. The objectives of the project
include enhancing local capacity of NGOs/CBOs/FBOs and communities to support a basic care package
for OVC and increasing access to direct support services for OVC and caregivers. The project will ensure
that OVC are receiving the six essential services defined by the USG and the Ministry of Women and Social
Action needed to be considered "reached". Africare will continue to provide wrap around services through
collaboration with various local international organizations. Under a subgrant to Habitat for Humanity, 30
houses will be constructed of OVC using local materials and training OVC in construction skills. Africare
strives to build the capacities of local NGO/CBOs/FBOs so that they can effectively manage their own
HIV/AIDS programs in a sustainable way. This will include training on organizational capacity building,
strengthening their monitoring and evaluation systems, leadership skills and organizational management as
well as mobilization of funds. In addition, Africare will work with other partners such as HIV/AIDS Alliance,
Burnet Institute and others to ensure that specific institutional capacity training and policy issues as well as
HIV/AIDS specific training is provided to sub-grantees.
Under this activity, Africare will reach 40,000 OVC with a comprehensive quality package of 6 services and
train 2,500 caregivers.
