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 Small Grants Fund on HIV and AIDS (SGF) was established by the Partnership Forum in 2002 as a
funding mechanism by which small scale CBOs and NGOs involved in the response to HIV and AIDS could
be assisted in carrying out catalytic advocacy, prevention, care and support activities. These organizations
have limited capacity and are not usually successful at accessing funding directly from donors. The SGF
has, since inception, been supported by the Finnish Embassy, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the
Netherlands and the Swedish Embassy. The WHO contributes in-kind support.
The PEPFAR Team in Namibia routinely receives numerous unsolicited proposals for funding from such
organizations, but because of constraints in USG funding mechanisms there are often few or no alternatives
through which PEPFAR Namibia can spontaneously respond affirmatively to such requests.
Through PEPFAR support provided to the Small Grants Fund in COP FY 2009, future unsolicited, qualified
proposals received by PEPFAR Namibia will be forwarded to the SGF for consideration. Successful
applicants will receive appropriate capacity building assistance that will be targeted to enhancing grass
roots organizations throughout Namibia, thereby adding value to national strategic HIV/AIDS plans (MTPs 3
and 4) and strengthening local responses. Locally well established NGOs and CBOs that can access
alternative sources of funding will not be eligible for SGF support.
