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.
NEW/REPLACEMENT NARRATIVE
The United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) operates in Namibia through a branch office
in Windhoek and a field office at Osire in Otjiwarongo Region.
The Osire field office is dedicated to working in and with the refugee camp at Osire, which hosts, as of 31
July 2008, 6,582 refugees, most of which (74%) come from Angola, with the remainder coming from
Burundi, DRC and Rwanda.
The total Osire camp population is nearly evenly divided between women and men, half of the camp
population is under 17 years of age, and 35% is under 11 years. In addition, there are nearly 1,400
refugees that are non-camp based, but receiving support from UNHCR.
There are more than 300 orphaned children, half boys and half girls, all of which receive assistance from
UNHCR. There are 63 unaccompanied minors and separate children, all attached to families, and three
child-headed households. All the children attend school and are monitored by UNHCR community services.
Accurate data describing the total number of HIV positive children are unavailable, but there are at least
seven children on ART at the local health center (MOHSS). PMTCT services have been provided to the
refugees, and five babies were delivered and tested since January 2008, all testing negative.
The USG PEPFAR Team in Namibia intends to provide modest support to UNHCR efforts on behalf of OVC
at the Osire camp. UNHCR has been supporting boys and girls clubs with a component on HIV education
and prevention activities, but due to a lack of funds those activities have been scaled back to weekends
only. Sexual and gender-based violence, while not at exceptionally high levels, is a concern and the subject
of prevention initiatives. Finally, with an increasing number of teenage pregnancies resulting from some
younger girls engaging in sexual activities in return of small amounts of money and/or toiletries, there is a
compelling need to sustain prevention and education activities at the camp with the support of UNHCR.
