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.

TITLE: Centralized Preparation for Palliative Care Printed Materials
NEED and COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE: Non-government organizations (NGOs) and implementing
partners often use printed materials to distribute information regarding home-based or facility-based
palliative care. Employing one central organization (to avoid duplication) to identify, develop, print, and
distribute an accurate arsenal of printed materials (in collaboration with the National AIDS Control
Programme (NACP) and key stakeholders) would create a cost-effective national infrastructure to
disseminate accurate information. This would alleviate each organization having to develop materials,
differing information circulating the nation, and enable all palliative care providers to have access to
information for all patients. Anti-stigma messages would also be developed and distributed in order to
address applicable barriers to care and treatment.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS: No accomplishments as of yet
ACTIVITIES: Initially, a primary assessment of existing materials pertaining to home-based palliative care,
facility-based palliative care, and prevention with positives would be conducted in order to review quality
and content. Further steps would include identifying materials that would be applicable for utilization at the
national level.
Upon completion of the assessment, in order to bolster and supplement existing information, the agency
TBD will develop additional accurate and salient messages for palliative care in addition to anti-stigma
messages for national distribution.
In addition to developing printed materials, TBD will be responsible for printing and distributing home-based
and facility-based palliative care information in addition to literature pertaining to prevention with positives.
In order to ensure consistently accurate and salient information, the organization, TBD, will conduct
monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of the printed materials in accordance with Government of Tanzania (GoT)
guidelines, current empirical scientific information, and culturally sensitive methods of disseminating
information.
LINKAGES: The organization undertaking the major activities will ensure communication and collaboration
with NACP and all key stakeholders and implementing partners involved with conducting and providing
palliative care in Tanzania. There are no targets indicated because the recipients are not unduplicated.
Printed materials would be prepared for a full spectrum of users, both literate and non-literate. Pictures and
alternative methods of information sharing would apply to the entire population of Tanzania.
Development of anti-stigma messages would ensure distribution of socially responsible content, in addition
to necessary care and treatment information nationwide.
M&E: Printed material will be reviewed by the implementing partner and NACP on a continual basis to
ensure accuracy and comprehensiveness. Measures will be adopted to plan for ongoing review of the
materials for accuracy and relevance to the nation of Tanzania.
SUSTAINABILITY: The NACP will be intimately involved with the monitoring and evaluation of these
palliative care printed materials. Enlisting buy-in from the GoT is instrumental in assuring sustainability.
Consistent partnerships with the GoT and USG partners will result in sustainable programs with regard to
printed material.
