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.
SUMMARY:
The Academy for Educational Development (AED) in partnership with South African Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (SANCA) and Lifeline along with a host of collaborators, seek to build on its success under the community voluntary counseling and testing program previous funded by PEPFAR. AED will collaborate with some of the same organizations and networks providing a mix of training along with several strategic testing events seeking to capture clients who may visit service outlets. The program will be implemented in four provinces.
BACKGROUND:
AED proposes to build upon a previous program to expand counseling and testing (CT) in South Africa that was funded by PEPFAR until FY 2006.
ACTIVITIES AND EXPECTED RESULTS:
Activity 1: Outreach and HIV testing
This activity will be implemented through enhancing current CT sites and creating selected new sites, especially in organizations with proven outreach to at-risk and underserved populations. AED will work with Lifeline and align its activities with the its workplace prevention program to hold testing days at selected worksites. AED will also support linkages to SANCA' s home visiting counselors with CT counselors to support family testing. SANCA clients who have alcohol and drug dependency problem will all be offered HIV testing by their counselors and this will be extended to their family members.
AED will hold testing events at locations frequented by youth and adolescents. Prior these events AED will conduct community campaigns targeting youth and adolescents.
Activity 2: Training
AED will train staff from SANCA who work with high risk populations on HIV counseling and testing. Refresher courses will be held for all other counselors. Counselors will be trained on couple HIV counseling and testing.
All of the above activities will contribute towards meeting PEPFAR's 2-7-10 goals.
