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 HIV and AIDS, STI and TB (HAST) National Strategic Plan (NSP) 2012-2016 plan and the US SA PEPFAR Partnership Framework, provide a platform for increasing capacity and providing policy guidance at all levels to meet the demands of the TB/HIV/AIDS response. This Technical Assistnace therefore focuses to develop and establish an international accredited tertiary education center that will educate postgraduate HCW on TB/HIV, infection control, and operational research. The project will leverage South Africas TB and HIV response by expanding the number of trained HCW, enhancing support to the TB and HIV sector to build human resource capacity in TB, and improving collaboration between South Africa National Department of Health TB and HIV programs and TB partners. ICAP will work collaboratively with the Department of Health and the University of Cape Towns Desmond Tutu HIV Centre (UCT-DTHC) and other partners to develop curricula and implement three courses: TB/HIV best practices, infection prevention/control programs, and operational research. The course content will primarily be delivered utilizing the blended learning platform, which combines face-to-face teaching with computer mediated instructiona platform that is proving highly effective in building HCW capacity in Africacomplemented by a longitudinal mentoring program.
This new activity has four main goals that aim to reduce the TB/HIV burden by creating best practice guidelines, education, and training.The first goal of the project is to develop, implement, and monitor a TB/HIV course for clinicians and other professional health care worke Develop a training course framework with course objectives, unit standards, and course modules for a four-day international TB/HIV course for clinicians and other HCW. Build leadership, management, and OR skills in health care professionals by delivering TB/HIV training. Evaluate the impact of the course on the knowledge of all participants by means of pre- and post-test surveys. Evaluate the training course and curriculum.The second goal is to develop, implement, and monitor an infection control diploma course Develop a national IC training strategy to meet the Strategic Plan. Develop a training course framework with course objectives, unit standards, and course modules for an IC training program by the end of PY01. Include in each model, training, or education a practical component and research opportunity for participants Increase capacity of SA DOH to implement TB/HIV-related projects that relate to IC training programs, environmental control evaluations, and general infrastructural, environmental health, or biomedical engineering input.The third goal is to develop, implement and monitor an OR training Develop OR training strategy to meet the Strategic Plan. Develop a training course framework with course objectives, unit standards, and course modules for an OR training program. Develop a mentoring program for participant-conducted OR projects. Provide opportunities for participants in TB epidemiological surveillance and programmatic data collection; design of tools/materials for data collection; collection and analysis of information; and building statistical and epidemiological knowledge.
