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.

The Manhica Health Research Center in Manhica, Mozambique is one of the premier research institutes in the country. A highly successful demographic health surveillance site has been operated by Manhica for several years, collecting information on more than 90,000 persons and providing a platform for strong evaluation science. PEPFAR support to the Manhica Center will be provided through a new direct agreement starting in COP2012 in order to support the extension of the surveillance system to include information on HIV/AIDS. Additionally, laboratory diagnostic capacity for HIV/AIDS and pneumococcal disease will be strengthened. This project will provide services and surveillance activities for the population of the Manhica district that are included in the existing demographic health surveillance program. Evaluation results are anticipated to have national-level benefits. The current award is with the Barcelona Research Center in Spain, however it is anticipated that the Manhica Health Research Center will manage most aspects of the funding and implementation, and be fully capable of receiving direct awards within the first two years of the award. The anticipated deliverables for this project are high-quality surveillance data on HIV and on pneumococcal disease among the roughly 90,000 persons residing within the demographic surveillance area. Several evaluation studies are planned to assess the epidemiological situation in this population, to examine the success of the new counseling and testing component this project will support, and to evaluate interventions at the population level to inform national programming. As this is a new award in COP2012, no costing or expenditure data has yet been collected for this activity and there is no pipeline.
Support to the Manhica Demographic Health Surveillance Site (DHSS) will strengthen the DHSS and add HIV related data into the demographic database. The project will build commnity-based HIV counseling and testing among a well-defined population.
The project intends to:* Incorporate HIV data into the existing and extensive DHSS database;* Enhance prevention of HIV infection by providing confidential counseling and testing to residents in the DHSS area;* Improve the diagnostic capacity of the laboratory for HIV/AIDS and related conditions such as pneumococcal disease;* Improve medical care and treatment of HIV/AIDS patients by strenghtening hospital morbidity surveillance, supporting the referral services, screening for non-communicable illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension, increasing access to ART, and improving tracking and recovery of treatment defaulters or persons who are non-adherent;* Improve diagnostic and treatment capacity for pneumococcal disease, including increased surveillance.
