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
The major emphasis area for this activity is infrastructure. The Regional Procurement Support Office
(RPSO) will assist USG Namibia by providing high quality technical guidance and required contracting
authorities mandatory by USG regulation. The USG requires the services of local construction contractors to
effect renovations at select Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS) sites throughout Namibia in the
implementation of HIV prevention, care and treatment services supported by FY08 PEPFAR program.
Facility renovation in Namibia is crucial for both provision of ART care and training of future ART providers.
Many MOHSS health facilities are in need of basic space in the outpatient department to accommodate the
large influx of patients seeking ART. Several MOHSS sites are providing ART in inappropriate and unsafe
environments, such as unused space on tuberculosis wards and operating theatres. In 2007, CDC/Namibia
received technical assistance from engineers from CDC/Headquarters to ensure that all future renovations
maximize structural interventions that can prevent TB transmission.
The USG will collaborate with the MOHSS, the Ministry of Works, the Global Fund, and other donors to
determine priority sites for renovation and the appropriate funding source for each. Renovation of ART sites
may not necessarily result in more patients on ART, but will result in improved quality of services.
Depending on the scope of the renovation and the value of the US dollar, funding will support renovations
for up to five sites to support provision of ART to People Living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) to improve the
ability of the clinic to serve a greater number of patients, reduce nosocomial transmission of TB, support
expanded rollout of rapid testing and IMAI, and provide a more complete range of services for PLWHA and
their families.
