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.

Aug 2012: Updated Agreement Name for consistency and to reflect EA.
The VAST program provides PEFPAR funds to support HIV and AIDS outreach and training in communities where Peace Corps Volunteers live and work. The program enables Peace Corps Mozambique to engage specialists, trainers and technical experts and to award limited grants from $500 to $10,000 per grant for school, community and NGO initiated activities.
Peace Corps Volunteers are allocated to work with CBOs/CFBs and associations of PLWHA supporting peers educators and community activistas in planning their activities, improving their knowledge on related subjects, participating on home base visits with their counterparts as observers to help to improve these process, leading palestras on health education at schools, health centers or other community centers, etc.
Many of these organizations support OVCs directly through life skills activities, income generation projects, and permargardens programs to improve children and community well being in overall. Therefore, these funds would be of foremost importance to Volunteers activities if granted.

PCVs are intensively trained to know Mozambican epidemic, the resources available and ways of access to these resources by the Mozambican communities, organizations and agencies that work in different missions, health referral centers as well as educational facilities that serve children and vulnerable population in need and funds available for community development. After the trainings, PCVs have enough skills to implement life skills education and promote HIV mitigation projects such as after-school boys and girls clubs that include the promotion of condom use and medical male circumcision among others. PC through PEPFAR/ VAST grants provide training in income generation activities and household strengthening activities such as permagardens to promote food security, formal nutrition training and use of nutrition methods with the aim to promote good and sustainable nutrition within the home environment.
