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.

The Rwanda Youth Program is a 4 year project financed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Education Development Center, Inc. (EDC). The Rwanda Youth Program (RYP) will provide youth, ages 14-24, in Rwanda's capital city, Kigali, with market-relevant life and work readiness training and support, hands-on training opportunities, and links to the employment and self-employment job market over a four year period. The program is targeting a total of 12,500 Urban youth of which 5000 will be orphans and vulnerable children. Youth are both male and female, with varied levels of education, and demonstrating the drive to improve their skills and assets to better connect with livelihood and market opportunities.
The project goals are to: • Increase Livelihood Opportunities for Youth • RYP will empower youth with the necessary tools and resources to enter into a positive development pathway that will lead to increased lifelong livelihood opportunities; • Develop a Thriving Youth Livelihood Support System RYP will build capacity and create linkages between youth, the Rwandan economy and the public and private institutions so that youth can access increased opportunities for productive engagement in Rwandan society.
Program's main activities and partners: The Rwanda Youth Project will work with a cadre of youth-serving organizations (local and international) to implement project activities. Implementing institutions will include NGOs, Civil Society Organizations (CSO), government agencies, education and training providers and Private-Sector firms.
All participants will receive a modular, 80-hour work readiness training course designed as a core program. This interactive, dynamic curriculum is designed to promote functional literacy and numeracy as well as essential workforce readiness and employability skills training such as leadership, communication, work habits, financial literacy and numeracy. Upon successful completion of the program, participants will receive a project-sponsored work readiness certificate.
Complementary specialized training will be determined based on market demand and provided by local institutions. This could for instance include topics such as counseling support to OVCs, HIV/AIDS prevention, English, advanced entrepreneurship and business plan development and short term specialized technical training.
Beyond training, RYP will work with local partners to increase their capacity in linking the program's youth graduates to sustainable livelihood pathways, either through pursuing formal and non formal education and training or linking them to jobs, internships and/or helping them to start small businesses.
Specific activities and targets in Fiscal year 2010 FY 2010 will be the second year of implementation of the Rwanda Youth Program (RYP). Activities will focus on youth services for 4000 youth. It is expected that all 4000 youth will benefit from a common "health and well-being package" focused on HIV/AIDS prevention and referrals, nutrition, health and safety at the workplace, in addition to the 80 hours workforce readiness curriculum. These youth will also benefit from employability and coaching services to help them transition to a more sustainable livelihood pathway.

The project will measure output and outcome indicators on a quarterly basis which will allow both project management and the USG to monitor the pace of implementation against the plan, verify that key outputs are being delivered, and provide periodic measures of program benefits. Project outputs will be measured quantitatively. Project outcomes will be measured both quantitatively and qualitatively.
