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.
In FY 2009 PEPFAR will provide direct support to the UPDC Unit in the MOH, in order to effectively
integrate pediatric HIV and AIDS services into the national health system and foster sustainability. The
UPDC is a technical unit in charge of the decentralization of health services, integration of HIV services in
the health system, equitable distribution of HIV services across health facilities and coordination of partners
involved in health service delivery.
With PEPFAR and Global Fund support, in collaboration with PEPFAR funded Implementing partners,
UPDC will build the capacity building of District Health Teams (DHT) in pediatric HIV care and treatment;
this includes integration of pediatric HIV care and treatment activities into district health plans and
programs, expansion of quality pediatric services at decentralized levels, and improvement of linkages with
other HIV and health programs. Capacity building will also include strengthening of district health teams in
program planning, implementation, coordination, supervision, and performance improvement processes.
This support will also improving the capacity to include scale up early infant diagnostic programs.
In FY 2009, the UPDC staff will undertake formative supervision visits related to pediatric HIV care and
treatment integration within each district at least twice a year, in collaboration with CIDC. A standard
checklist will be used to assess the quality and integration of pediatric HIV services, with emphasis on
regular feedback to sites and sharing of best practices.
The UPDC/ MOH Unit will continue to support the DHTs in developing the Pediatric HIV programming
framework. PEPFAR funds will be used to support a technical position on the Integrated Management of
Childhood Illnesses (IMCI) within the UPDC, in order to accelerate the integration of HIV into IMCI and
improve the identification, care and early treatment of HIV-infected children under five, through community
and health facility services, in synergy with CIDC, USG clinical partners, and the Global Fund. To this end,
UPDC will collaborate with PEPFAR implementing clinical partners and the Global fund to increase access
to HIV care and treatment services, tracking, follow- up and continued care for infants and children.
This activity fully supports the Rwanda PEPFAR five-year strategy for national scale-up and sustainability
and the Rwandan Government ART decentralization plan.
