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.

SACTWU Workers Health Programs (SWHP) overarching goal in support of SAGs national goal to reduce new HIV infections by 50%, is to circumcise 80% of target population i.e. HIV negative men between the ages of 15 49 years within the 5 years. Established SWHP objectives are to: (a) Implement MMC activities within high-volume regions; (b) Train all MMC activity staff, DOH staff, and private practitioners within the district according to NDOH / WHO guidelines to ensure sustainability; (c) Provide a comprehensive package of MMC services; (d) Strengthen and improve the quality of existing health care facilities and services through the scale up of MMC activities; (e) Establish referral systems and linkages with other public sector HIV care and treatment services; (f) Provide extensive community mobilization activities. SACTWU will provide MMC support in several districts within KwaZulu-Natal, Gauteng, Northern Cape, and Free State.. SWHPs program is configured around the Models of Optimizing Volume and Efficiency (MOVE). In terms of Monitoring and Evaluation SWHP will contribute by working closely with DOH and other PEPFAR partners to build the country capacity for implementing and maintaining a fully comprehensive data management system. This will include developing tools for performance assessment. To date, five vehicles have been requested under this award, three of which are pending approval from CDC PGO; however, in COP 2012 SACTWU plans to purchase up to 7 additional vehicles to accommodate more than three-fold program expansion.
In response to the normative guidance and under the leadership of SAG, PEPFAR funds in SHWP will be utilized to support the implementation of safe voluntary medical male circumcision. Number of male Circumcisions to be performed according to national standards during the reporting period will be 50,000. SWHP overarching goal, in support of SAGs national goal to reduce new HIV infections by 50%, is to circumcise 80% of target population i.e. HIV negative men between the ages of 15 49 years within the 5 years. The proposed districts that will be provided with MMC support are Amajuba and UThukela and are currently underserved in terms of MMC. SWHP will integrate a minimum package of MMC services as per NDOH guidelines, in their provision of MMC activities. All clients accessing MMC services will be provided with pre-operative provider initiated HIV counseling and testing (HCT), which will include routine screening for the exclusion of symptomatic TB and STIs. Safe MMC surgical procedures will be conducted on a daily basis by appropriately trained clinical staff using models that optimize volume and efficiency (MOVE). Post-surgery, the client will again receive counseling on correct and consistent condom usage and post-operative care, including sexual abstinence during wound healing. SWHP will support the integration of MMC referral into all HIV services and will strengthen links with HIV care and treatment sites and non-medical HCT sites, to ensure the referral of HIV negative men to MMC service facilities. To increase informed demand for MMC services, SWHP will employ community based individuals to provide advocacy, community mobilization, and education. SWHP will deploy on-site mentors to support and provide mentorship and supportive supervision to DOH staff and private practitioners conducting MMC activities. SWHP will recruit and appropriately train M&E staff to provide quality assurance and monitor service delivery through the implementation of an effective and efficient M&E system, which will address all the required MMC activities.
