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.
This is a new activity for FY 2008 to support blood safety and injection safety nation wide. The Partnership
for Supply Chain Management Systems (SCMS) is an international leader in procurement of medical
supplies. This activity will leverage resources provided through the Namibian Blood Transfusion Services
(NamBTS, activity 5124.08), the World Health Organization (WHO, activity 5123.08) the International
Training and Education Center on HIV and AIDS (ITECH, activity 18275.08), and the Partnership for Supply
Chain Management (SCMS activity 18281.08).
NamBTS supplies approximately 20,000 units of blood per year, all of which are screened for principle
transfusion transmissible infections (HIV, HBV, HCV, and syphilis). In addition to the routine need for blood
bags, there is a critical shortage of functioning incinerators to safely dispose of blood bags and other blood
safety materials. SCMS will procure blood bags and incinerators to support the Namibian blood program.
This will go to procure 7,700 blood bags, supplying approximately 38% of the Namibian need for blood
bags. It will also support renovation of approximately 2 large incinerators and 3 smaller incinerators within
strategic geographic points in the country. In addition to blood safety, these incinerators will be a critical
element to support injection safety activities (activities 3774.08, 7461.08). According to the Ministry of
Health and Social Services (MOHSS), Namibia has only one incinerator in country that is fully functional.
The national referral hospital Katatura Hospital incinerator requires significant renovation, and the
incinerators in the hospitals in Grootfontein, Otjiwarongo, and Katima Mulilo have either broken down or
burned down. The incinerators in the other regions are not 100% functional. SCMS will work closely with
CDC and the MOHSS to determine and prioritize the incinerator renovation needs in FY08, and provide the
renovation services as well as required maintenance training.
