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.

Peace Corps left Rwanda in 1994 with the outbreak of civil war and genocide. Over the last 12 years, Rwanda has seen an enormous economic recovery and development, but the country still suffers from the lingering effects of the fighting. Peace Corps believes that now is an opportune time to begin discussing a return to Rwanda in FY 2008. Rwanda continues to experience a significant shortage of trained health workers and teachers. To help build human resource capacity, Peace Corps proposes working in the areas of education and Health, particularly in HIV/AIDS. Peace Corps Volunteers would develop and manage effective community-based activities for the prevention of HIV/AIDS and for the care of infected- and affected-families. These efforts would contribute to the on-going EP efforts to prevent and mitigate the impact of HIV/AIDS in Rwanda. Peace Corps Volunteers would work closely with other EP-funded partners to increase referrals between clinical and community health and HIV/AIDS services as well as to address stigma and discrimination in their communities.
With an initial $200,000 in EP funding, Peace Corps will travel to Rwanda to begin discussions with the GOR - MOH, MINEDUC, MIGEPROF, and MINALOC - Voluntary Service Overseas, and the other USG agencies and partners. This funding will be used to conduct an initial country assessment.
The direct output of this activity is a comprehensive assessment to re-establish the Peace Corps program in Rwanda.
These activities address the key legislative issue of volunteers. Peace Corps plans to begin a full program in FY2008 in Rwanda pending successful consultation with the GOR and future congressional funding. This activity reflects the Rwanda EP five-year strategy by coordinating among USG agencies and encouraging volunteer activities.
