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: 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
ACTIVITY HAS BEEN MODIFIED IN THE FOLLOWING WAY
This is a continuing activity with funding initiated in late COP07. ASM has the capacity to support the PEPFAR program by ensuring that laboratories possess the necessary organizational and technical infrastructure to provide quality laboratory testing and results in support of HIV prevention, care, and treatment programs, especially for tuberculosis (TB) and opportunistic infections (OI). ASM can provide technical assistance through carefully chosen experts from among ASM's more than 5,000 clinical laboratory microbiologists and immunologists worldwide. Plans are to continue to strengthen a strong cadre of local Nigerian microbiologists in order to ensure sustainability and an ongoing, standardized transfer of skills. ASM has also within its staff a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) expert, who assists ASM, as well as, local Nigerian M&E and technical experts with identifying microbiology-specific quality and technical indicators to introduce in the national M&E system.
