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 Management and Staffing costs under this submission cover one essential existing positions (the Emergency Plan Outreach Coordinator), plans for one new local hire position (administrative assistant to the Emergency Plan Country Coordinator), and provides Post support for the Emergency Plan Country Coordinator. If existing Embassy resources can successfully cover the administrative needs of the Country Coordinator then the administrative position will not be filled.
The Emergency Plan Outreach Coordinator, an Eligible Family Member (EFM) position, is located in the Public Affairs Office and supports a range of public affairs activities under the Emergency Plan. The position will manage and oversee the new radio partnership with the Voice of America, "Your Health, Your Future." The position performs several key functions, including:
(1) Develop a media strategy identifying opportunities, such as signing ceremonies, facility openings, Ambassador visits/testing, and public service messages to highlight Emergency Plan support for HIV/AIDS prevention, counseling, testing, and treatment activities in Tanzania. The position attends all senior policy and all-staff meetings for guidance in developing this strategy. The media strategy is an integrated Team Tanzania product drawing on all Mission elements including, Departments of State (DOS), Defense and Health and Human Services/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Peace Corps, and the United States Agency for International Development.
(2) Provide support to Emergency Plan program offices and implementing partner organizations to implement the media strategy by organizing activities (press releases, media interviews, media trips, etc.) to ensure that Tanzanians are aware of Emergency Plan themes, priorities, and programs. Incorporate country statistics from the Country Operating Plan (COP) and its required reporting into these activities.
(3) Monitor Office of the Global AIDS Coordinator (OGAC) outreach planning efforts to ensure that Embassy outreach activities support upcoming themes and events. Forward by e-mail OGAC press summaries and other relevant outreach materials to Interagency HIV/AIDS Coordinating Committee (IHCC) members.
(4) Create and periodically update "pocket briefs" for Embassy personnel, which provide information on the following aspects of Emergency Plan in Tanzania: a) HIV/AIDS facts; b) Emergency Plan policy priorities; and 3) Emergency Plan accomplishments.
Finally, the management and staffing budget of the DOS includes a travel budget to support the Emergency Plan Coordinator and, as needed the Emergency Plan Outreach Coordinator, to undertake international travel (trainings, meetings, and conferences), and local travel (U.S. Government strategic planning meetings, partner meetings, workshops, and partner site visits).
The management and staffing budget also includes support for interns and/or fellows with relevant expertise and experience. The final components of the budget support expenses of the Country Coordinator that are most easily addressed by Post, including housing costs and related residential expenses, and the purchase of needed office supplies and equipment, printing costs, meeting planning and support and special project assistance.
The salary expenses and International Cooperative Administrative Support Service (ICASS) charges for the Emergency Plan Country Coordinator are included in the Department of Health and Human Services/Office of Global Health Affairs' Management and Staffing submission.
During the fiscal year 2007 COP process, it became clear that the Country Coordinator and senior management team need in the future support for mid-to-senior level budget and trend analysis as well as a COP production team that would include a document control expert and several copy editors.

The "cost of doing business" includes International Cooperative Administrative Support Services (ICASS) charges assessed for the Emergency Plan Outreach Coordinator position and, possibly one administrative assistant. There are not Information Resources Management (IRM) or Capital Security Cost Sharing (CSCS) incurred by the Department of State for these positions.
This activity is designed to use public diplomacy and public affairs to heighten awareness of the HIV/AIDS emergency and the efforts of PEPFAR funded programs in Tanzania. Activities will strive to increase the educational opportunities for the media, reduce stigma surrounding HIV, encourage bold leadership throughout the sector, and advocate for involvement in HIV/AIDS initiatives. The activity will be multi-faceted, cutting across the themes of treatment, prevention and care and will utilize a wide range of public diplomacy tools. Examples of potential activities include: Use of international expertise and technical assistance to work with local journalist on "keeping the story fresh" and continuing education on HIV/AIDS coverage. Creation and distribution to journalists and other media outlets of a bilingual (English and Kiswahili) HIV/AIDS material catalogue and the establishment of a corresponding resource center. Leveraging of donor coordination in public outreach for HIV/AIDS communication messages. Development and implementation of a formalized Public Affairs Media Outreach calendar of outreach activities. This will likely end up as a component of our broader PEPFAR Tanzania Intranet website. Increased airing of HIV messages to augment USG HIV programs and increased media exposure for PAO Speaker Programs that contain HIV/AIDS applicable messages. For example, the distribution of materials and increase of coverage for basic PAO cultural programs that contain simultaneous HIV messages not usually covered in the scope and budget of the Speaker Program. Increased outreach for major events such as World AIDS Day and other applicable Tanzanian holidays/events. Support for awareness activities to highlight major program accomplishments and to announce new programs such as MARPS and public private partnerships. In addition, the activity will enhance PAO's ability to cover the logistical needs of increasing public awareness of PEPFAR and HIV/AIDS programming by providing support to activities such as: hiring transportation for the media to attend/visit PEPFAR activities, augmenting the travel budget of the PEPFAR Media Outreach Coordinator, and allowing for increased support for the Ambassador's and other high level USG officials' participation in a wide-range of HIV/AIDS events including USG partner events, donor /international community activities and advocacy and policy opportunities.
