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: 2008 2009
John Snow, Inc., in collaboration with the GOR, continues to scale up its injection safety program in the
various hospitals and health centers throughout Rwanda. In FY 2008, JSI will implement injection safety
activities focusing on capacity building, logistics, procurement, BCC and policy change, protection and care
of healthcare staff, and M&E. 1,500 healthcare personnel and 450 medical waste handlers in the public and
private sectors will be trained on safe injection practices, medical waste management, and reducing the
number of unnecessary injections. Inter-district site visits will be conducted to exchange experiences and
train teaching staff at nursing schools on safe injections and medical waste management.
In FY 2008, logistics and procurement activities will continue. In collaboration with the national procurement
and distribution system, JSI will continue providing auto-disable syringes, safe boxes, and needle cutters to
health facilities. JSI will also build capacity of pharmacy managers through training in stock management.
The sustainable importation of security boxes and auto-disable syringes will continue. JSI will evaluate the
utilization of BCC materials among healthcare workers and will conduct a KAP survey on safe injections.
JSI will also implement medical waste management activities in FY 2008. The system for collection and
destruction of medical waste will be reinforced and safety boxes will be provided to health facilities. JSI will
collaborate with the MOH, WHO and the private sector to develop and implement the National Medical
Waste Management Plan.
The protection of healthcare staff is a significant challenge in injection safety. In FY 2008, JSI will procure
protection equipment for all healthcare workers in public health centers and develop a national policy to
ensure PEP and care. These activities will be monitored through joint supervision activities (MOH and
TRAC). JSI will also evaluate safe injection practices and medical waste management in Rwanda.
