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
This is a continuing activity in COP09, the fifth and final year of Track 1 central funding for Blood Safety
activities. This activity has 2 components: (1) support for a long-term technical advisor for Blood Safety,
and (2) technical assistance and support for Blood Safety training.
The World Health Organization received Track 1 funding beginning in FY04 to provide technical assistance
to the Blood Transfusion Service of Namibia (NAMBTS), Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS),
and Namibia Institute of Pathology (NIP). A needs assessment and situation analysis identified several
technical assistance needs in terms of policy, guidelines, and associated training. A long-term WHO
technical advisor (TA) with extensive experience in blood safety was assigned to Namibia. The WHO's role
is to provide technical support while NAMBTS, MOHSS and NIP are the implementers of the program. The
development of the National Blood Policy was initiated as a part of this project and has been finalized. A
major challenge has been bringing the NAMBTS, MOHSS, and NIP together for the first time to deliberate
on respective roles and responsibilities, and the policy development process greatly facilitated development
of those relationships.
Major achievements in COP08 included assisting with development and launching of the Strategic Plan for
the Implementation of the National Blood Policy, done in collaboration with NAMBTS, MOHSS and NIP.
The other major areas of support have been blood donor recruitment, quality donor care and blood
collection aiming to increase blood donations. In COP09, WHO will provide technical assistance and
support for training of NAMBTS, MOHSS, and NIP staff in their respective responsibilities in quality
management, component preparation, counseling of donors and patients, supervisory skills, and assessing
the cost-effectiveness and feasibility of initiating screening donated blood for transfusion transmitted
infections.
