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.

The Center for Clinical Care and Clinical Research Nigeria (CCCRN), in collaboration with local teaching institutions, will seek to more closely align USG-funded HIV/AIDS efforts with the national programs through a program called Partnership for Medical Education and Training (PMET). PMET is a comprehensive solution to HIV/AIDS and other infectious disease training gaps in Nigeria.
PMETs goal is to create a network of health training institutions that will assist State and Federal Governments to develop their health care systems through enhancing training capacity in prevention, care and treatment of HIV disease, opportunistic infections, the appropriate use of antiretroviral therapy, and the implementation of community-based care; and strengthening the human and organizational capacity of their health systems to sustainably address emerging new HIV challenges or for any related illness. This goal will be achieved by reaching these Strategic Objectives (SO):
1. INDIVIDUAL: Educating individual health professionals at pre-service and post-graduate levels in appropriate knowledge and skills;
2. POLICY: Working with the Federal and State Governments plus professional associations, regulatory bodies and others to develop and implement policies that will enable and facilitate the vision and goal of this program; and
3. SYSTEMS: Strengthening the capacity of target training institutions so that, ultimately, they are capable of providing enhanced education, clinical mentorship, distance based e-learning, curriculum development and all other elements required for continuous improvement in HIV training and education based on locally generated new knowledge and practice.

SO1 Health care workers are empowered to provide comprehensive HIV care services
SO2 Health systems are strengthened to provide capacity building
SO3 Training institutions sustain capacity building activities beyond the life of the grant. The CCCRN pre service training award commenced on 30th September with the aim of equipping undergraduate nurses, community health workers and MPH students with the skill sets required to meet the growing challenges and complexities of HIV/AIDS management. A key element of the award is to institutionalize training structures in a sustainable manner that will engender increased government investment in capacity building. The trainings will build on existing national infrastructure, master trainers and national curricula in the relevant fields of HIV/AIDS management such as Adult ART, Pediatric ART, PMTCT, HCT and TB/HIV. Trainings will also be offered in Leadership, Program Management, Quality Improvement and other areas necessary for a sustainable and comprehensive approach to HIV/AIDS care and treatment programs.
