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.

HIVSAs program focuses on community, health and social development systems strengthening initiatives through building and strengthening of the institutional of capacity of community based organizations (CBO) working with OVC and their links to South African Government. The program targets 50 community based organizations (CBO) in Gauteng Province. HIVSA will conduct a mapping exercise of the OVC services at the community level to identify gaps and strengthen links and referral. The mapping process will reveal the extent of the availability of the following services within municipal areas: nutritional support, child protection, legal documents, general healthcare, household economic strengthening, educational support, social services, HIV and sexual and reproductive health services as well as psychological support. The mapping process will be followed by CBO organizational capacity assessments to identify system strengthening needs which will inform the development of improvement plans for OVC services. The capacity areas included in the assessment will include: governance, management practices, human resources, financial resources, service delivery (OVC focused), external relations and sustainability. CBO assessments will be followed by management and organizational capacity development training which will be based on gaps identified during the organizational assessment; the training will be coupled by onsite mentoring support to the CBOs and close monitoring. HIVSA will train 40 Social Auxiliary Workers to be based in the CBOs that underwent assessment to strengthen their capacity and OVC programs. There will be Provision of accredited training of CBO-based Community Workers that supports OVC interventions and facilitates better support and referrals.
The goal of HIVSA is to increase the provision of quality comprehensive care and support that improves the well being of children, their caregivers and families reducing risk and vulnerability and increasing resilience. This will be achieved by building and strengthening of the institutional of capacity of community based organizations working with OVC and their links to South African Government. The area of coverage is within Gauteng Province: Soweto; Orange Farm; Sedibeng. Combined these areas have a total population of 2.5 million and approximately 300 000 OVC that require services HIVSA program will work with approximately 50 community-based organizations and supporting between 500 and 750 community based workers based within or working with these organizations. Collectively these organizations service in the region of 30,000 50,000 OVC over 5 years. This will be achieved through the improvement and scale up of services in terms of quality and comprehensiveness, referral processes and tools, including links between stakeholders. The program will be informed by organizational capacity assessments as well as independent baseline evaluation. The program will strengthen the integration of the social and the health component and promote a comprehensive programme.
