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: 2007 2008 2009
Continuing Activity: (No new funds for FY09)
The Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (FURJ) has been providing technical assistance (TA) for the
Mozambican Counseling and Testing (CT) Program since FY05. Main focus of activities has been in the
strengthening of CT program training and monitoring through the development and improvement of CT
training materials and supervision tools. This activity is a continuation of South-to-South collaboration with
Brazilian experts to support and provide short-term TA to the Mozambican National Counseling and Testing
Program.
This activity will support TA provided by Brazilian HIV/AIDS, CT and training experts to assist the MOH CT
Program and technical staff to improve existing national CT guidelines, revise training materials as well as
support its piloting, to reflect the new CT directions taken by the MOH: 1) the Counseling and Testing in
Health (CTH) approach, which integrates the HIV testing with TB, Sexual Transmitted Diseases (STD) and
hypertension screenings and referral when needed, as well as with counseling on malaria prevention,
Sexual and Reproductive Health orientation - especially in relation to early pregnancy diagnosis and
institutional delivery - and environmental health education; 2) the expansion of Provider Initiated CT (PICT)
in clinical settings.
In the COP08 period FURJ will continue to provide TA support to the CT program. Activities planned for
COP08 are:
1. Provide technical assistance on materials development and revision, training implementation for CTH
expansion;
2. Translation and adaptation of couples counseling and testing materials addressing issues of disclosure
and discordance, as well as transition towards family focused CT services and;
3. Support the operationalization of the HIV rapid testing training package.

ACTIVITY UNCHANGED FROM FY2008 - NO NEW FUNDING IN FY09
April08 Reprogramming Change: Increase in funding by $50,000 for training.
Federal Universityof Rio De Janeiro will provide long term training in Brazil to a clincial pathologist from
Mozambique. It is expected that the Mozambician pathologist will be able to draw on experiences and
resources obtained while in Brazil to strengthen and reinforce the national lab services in Mozambique.
Continuing activity: This activity has several different components of continuing and new activities with
emphasis on in-service and pre-service training. The Federal University of Rio de Janeiro is supporting the
Ministry of health in its efforts to build the capacity of Laboratory technicians within the lab network. With
FY08 funds, FURJ will implement the following activities.
1 - Continuation of technical training for Mozambican Lab Technicians in Brazil. This training will provide a
four month technical/practical training in immunology, biochemistry, hematology,as well as laboratory and
quality management training for 15 (superior and medium level) Mozambican Lab technicians in Brazil.
2 - Continuation of TA for the PT program. FURJ will continue to support the National Institute of Health
Immunology lab (NIH) to maintain and expand the national proficiency testing program for HIV serology to
include sending out of dry plasma spots for remote laboratories performing HIV rapid tests and to introduce
a PT program for HBsAg TA. In addition TA will also be provided to the NIH to in its efforts to become the
MOH reference laboratory for serology in the country.
3 - Continuation of TA for the implementation of Quality Systems and a Bio-safety program at the NIH. This
will include supervision visits to maintain both programs.
4 - Continuation of the In Country Project Manager (ICPM). One Brazilian laboratory professional will be
stationed in Mozambique as the ICPM and a second recruited. They responsibilities will include:
preparation of training courses and technical material for lab staff, supervision visits to laboratories, as well
as planning of continued education activities for lab network. They will also ensure collaboration between
FURJ/FUJB, CDC-Mozambique and the MOH.
5 - Continuation of Mentorship training program in laboratories performing CD4 lymphocyte count by flow
cytometry, biochemical and hematological tests. Three trainings for a period of 9 months will be conducted
with 25 people trained and laboratories that received this training in FY2008 will receive supervision visits to
support the maintenance of good laboratory practice.
6 - To provide two faculty to teach courses for the superior level laboratory technicians, for a period of one
year. The aim of this activity is to assist the MOH increase the critical mass of well trained professionals.
Teachers will follow curriculum developed by the MOH and Mozambican teaching institutions and 30 people
will be trained.
7 - Conduct a workshop to promote collaboration between clinicians and laboratorians.
8 - Provide TA to the TB reference laboratories in Mozambique to implement TB culture diagnostics and
DST in the regional labs in Beira, Maputo and Nampula.
9- Support a position within the MOH Laboratory section, to build capacity of the department in strategic
program planning and implementation.
