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: 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
The Extending Service Delivery for Reproductive Health and Family Planning Project (ESD), administered by Pathfinder International through an integrated agreement with majority wrap-around funding from health, is focused on a results-oriented approach to enhance the use of HIV and RH/FP services in four provinces- Cabo Delgado, Gaza, Inhambane, and Maputo. These geographic locations reflect priorities for PEPFAR and family planning expansion, due to its high HIV prevalence rates, under-served populations for HIV/FP/RH services and low contraceptive prevalence rates. This project strengthens the capacity of nurses and other health care providers from PEPFAR clinical sites to deliver combined HIV/RH/FP services, to include improved capacity for appropriate referrals; improved client awareness of and demand for contraceptive methods, including youth; improved understanding of HIV risks and prevention; promotion of dual protection, and strengthened community outreach and access to quality HIV/RH/FP services. This project supports the PEPFAR Goal of FP/HIV Integration activities, will capitalize on PEPFAR platforms to provide a range of family planning (FP) services to HIV-positive and other high risk women, men, youth and all women regardless their serostatus.
Due to the pipeline analysis, FY 12 requests were reduced to ESD. Since then this project is supported with MCH and FP funds.
Eigth vehicles were purchased/leased under this mechanism from the start of the mechanism through COP FY12, to support the implementation of project activities. To improve efficiency in this project, mentoring and formative supervision are being conducted. LARC were introduced with close follow-up. The project has a PMP and reports on a quarterly basis.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
