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 USG and the SAG are working together on a major program rationalization effort in order to enhance sustainability and to increase effectiveness and impact of the program on maternal and child health. REDACTED. A comprehensive submission defining specific activities will be prepared for the November review and final submission in January. It is anticipated that there will be significant reprogramming during the coming year since this is an ongoing process that will not be completed quickly.
As part of the national PMTCT program, the NDOH recently issued the National Integrated Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV Accelerated Plan (A-Plan) which is based on a bottleneck analysis to fast track strengthening of the PMTCT program with an initial focus on 18 health districts in 24 months. The additional fund will be primarily used to support the A-Plan to increase over PMTCT cascade in these districts. We will work with WHO and UNICEF in supporting the NDOH in adapting and revising the PMTCT to rapidly achieve the NSP's goal of less than 5% MTCT rate. The government is expected to initiate implementation of these guidelines by 2010.
