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.
Executive MPH Program: Ten MPH candidates are mid-way through their two-year program at the
NURSPH as of January 2008. The anticipated program completion date for this MPH cohort is December
2008. Without increased funding, 10 MPH candidates will not complete their degree program and previous
cohorts will not receive the supplementary support provided by Tulane faculty to complete their theses, a
requirement for the award of an MPH.
Certificate Training Program in HIV: Twenty health professionals from key MOH entities, NGOs, and FBOs
receive intensive training in the use of SI for improved programming. Anticipated program completion date
for this cohort is September 2008. Without increased funding, 20 participants will not receive the only
graduate-level equivalent training currently provided in-country and previous cohorts will not receive the
supplementary support provided by Tulane faculty to complete their research projects, a requirement for the
award of a certificate.
