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.
Low levels of use of male and female condoms is one of the major factors for responsible for HIV transmission in Nigeria (NACA 2007).. For both females and males, the proportion of respondents who had ever used condoms peaked between the age ranges of 20 to 29 years and declined thereafter (NARHS 2007). Overall, 16% of the sexually active respondents reported using male condoms as at the time of the survey. Eight percent of females and about a quarter (24%) of males were current condom users. There was a significant variation between the proportion of male current users in urban areas (32%) and in the rural areas (19%) (NARHS 2007). Condoms are more affordable and accessible in the urban areas than the rural areas (NARHS 2007) where just 30% of Nigerias population lives.While the awareness of condoms may be high, the usage is still abysmally low and poorly sustained. COP funding for USAID Nigeria has either flat lined or reduced over the past 4 years. This reduces the prospects of expanding our Condoms Programming viz a viz our Sexual Transmission Prevention Portfolio to be robust enough to respond to the HIV Prevention issues of a country as large as Nigeria. Based on a diminishing Prevention Portfolio, the burden on the treatment, care and support portfolio of PEPFAR Nigeria is increasing. As such, a boost in the condom programming component of the STP portfolio will reduce the rate of new infections especially with an array of partners with proven experience in executing such Prevention Programs in Nigeria and consequently reduce the burden on other portfolios.
