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.
As an OVC partner, this activity will link with the PACT Coordinating Implementing Partner Group network for OVC (#7783) and the FHI OVC data management system (#7715).
This activity began at the end of FY2006. The program is a Global Development Alliance (GDA) through the Bureau for Economic Growth, Agriculture, and Trade. The GDA will tap the promising practices of the "Alliance for African Youth Employability" that is currently underway in other countries. This alliance involves the International Youth Foundation, Nokia, the Lions Clubs International Foundation, and USAID. The Alliance for African Youth Employability has, since 2005, impacted 9,495 youth in South Africa and Rwanda through job training, internship and job placement, support to start their own businesses, life skills development, HIV prevention awareness raising.
In Tanzania, the majority of orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) are adolescents needing relevant training and jobs as more and more are relied upon for household income. Existing vocational training and income generating activities are often not based on market assessments of manpower demand and forecasting, which are central to the Alliance for African Youth Employability GDA.
This activity, just beginning with FY06 funding aims to improve the employability of older OVC in select locations of Tanzania through a comprehensive project. Beneficiaries will receive market-driven vocational skills, small business start-up support, internships, and/or employment placement. Life skills that will further improve employability will also be included and tailored to the specific needs of children affected by HIV/AIDS.
Primary activities with FY07 funding include a labor market assessment in the target areas; identifying OVC programs that currently offer vocational training or have the capacity to incorporate such services; adapting or creating labor market relevant curriculum, as necessary; arranging private sector linkages to improve the quality of training and help place trainees in internships, jobs and self employment; engaging youth in developing appropriate strategies or strategy enhancements; addressing gender equity to ensure girls' participation; and implementing age-appropriate activities for 400 OVC including training, internships, job placement services and/or business support services. Initial activities will be in Iringa, Morogoro, Mwanza, Arusha, Kilimanjaro, and Dar es Salaam.
The program funding requested in FY07 will be used to provide OVC will skills relevant to the labor market, internship placements, and job placements and/or assistance in starting up their own businesses. Partner NGOs will gain capacity in initiating and managing market-appropriate employability programs. A focus will be placed on ensuring transferability of this activity's strategies to increase consistency of effort among OVC IPG network members undertaking economic opportunity services. As with all USG-funded implementing partners, as a member of the IPG, PASADA will implement stigma and discrimination activities from the Stigma Tool Kit.
As a public-private partnership, USAID investment in this GDA will be joined by private sector funding and technical support.
