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.
THIS IS A NEW ACTIVITY FOR FY09.
PEPFAR has been providing assistance to countries to ensure a safe and adequate blood supply. The
National Blood Transfusion Service (NBTS) of Rwanda provides leadership for Rwanda to reduce the risk of
medical transmission of HIV and other blood borne pathogens, and to ensure adequate supplies of safe
blood and blood products. The American Association of Blood Banks (AABB) has been providing technical
assistance to the NBTS in the following areas: assessing current infrastructure needs for a national,
regionalized blood transfusion system; developing generic and site-specific protocols for obtaining, handling
and storing, transporting, and distributing blood for use; developing generic national and site-specific
protocols for testing blood for HIV, hepatitis and syphilis; developing and implementing national guidelines
for the appropriate use of blood and blood products, nationally and regionally; developing and providing
training programs and continuing education programs for health care professionals involved with blood
transfusion services; and implementing a system for reviewing and adjusting program activities based on
monitoring information. As the agreement with AABB, to provide technical assistance, is coming to an end
in FY09, PEPFAR would like to continue supporting technical assistance to the NBTS in Rwanda. A new
funding announcement will be proposed in FY 09 to provide technical assistance for the blood transfusion
service.
