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 Fintrac program is managed by USAID's Natural Resource Management/Economic Growth (NRM/EG) Team. The overall objective of Fintrac's Tanzania Sustainable Horticulture Program is to increase small-scale farmers' incomes through sustainable production of new horticultural crops and products, and by increasing employment in the wider horticulture industry. Fintrac will reduce critical value chain constraints and increase smallholder participation by: supporting crop diversification; developing stronger and more inclusive market linkages; training to achieve more efficient production practices; introducing new technologies; and encouraging public/private sector partnerships. It is envisioned that Fintrac will collaborate with the EngenderHealth CHAMPION project for workplace HIV/AIDS activities and with other PEFPAR prevention and OVC/home-based care partners for integrating HIV/AIDS prevention, support and mitigation activities into the program.
This program contributes to the Partnership Framework goals on Prevention and Service Maintenance and Scale-Up. Fintrac will incorporate HIV/AIDS prevention and awareness training into its project through a wide range of activities. Specific participation targets for HIV/AIDS/OVC-affected farm households will be set; such households will be identified in collaboration with HIV/AIDS organizations. Fintrac will further work with relevant organizations to establish demonstration plots for farms, assist in crop selection for nutrition and income, and provide market linkages. In addition, Fintrac will ensure that farms include indigenous vegetables and other target crops high in micronutrients, and/or having synergistic properties with ARVs. Nutrition education will focus on communicating with children and youth about good nutrition practices. As part of Fintrac's overall agronomic training package, basic labor saving technologies will be introduced that have a positive impact on women and HIV/AIDS-affected households. These include mulching (significantly reducing time-consuming weeding requirements and water loss), water management (drip and other water-saving irrigation techniques) and low-cost greenhouses. Finally, Fintrac will work with the private sector to provide HIV/AIDS prevention, awareness and nondiscrimination training alongside smallholder group agronomic training activities.
Fintrac employs a seven-step approach to increase participation among women, youth and other disenfranchised groups in income-generating activities by: 1) setting outreach and participation targets; 2) incorporating gender sensitivity factors into product/activity selection; 3) training staff, clients, and counterparts in gender-sensitive methodologies; 4) facilitating women's access to savings accounts, health awareness education, leadership opportunities; 5) contributing to the strengthening of policy and institutional environments where appropriate; 6) partnering with women and youth-managed groups and companies; and 7) monitoring and evaluating results on a gender-disaggregated basis.
Linking PEPFAR programs to the NRM/EG program area will allow for a comprehensive approach to HIV/AIDS in the affected communities that these programs serve. PEPFAR will expand its reach to underserved populations, building upon NRM/EG partners' access to and partnership with rural populations. This wrap-around activity will leverage both human and financial resources as well as NRM/EG funding sources and partners, to complement PEPFAR goals and maximize the effectiveness of programs. A value-chain approach is used by
NRM/EG to develop production capacity and quality improvement in profitable agricultural enterprises and to ensure long-term market connectivity. By utilizing these platforms, PEPFAR interventions will also become sustainable, as integrated parts of these programs.
Fintrac's project will be implemented in Arusha/Moshi/Hai/Lushoto, Morogoro, Iringa,
Mbeya, Coast and Zanzibar. Target populations include adult men and women, and vulnerable households including those affected by HIV/AIDS.
Awards made under the NRM/EG program are subject to standard monitoring and evaluation protocols. This includes an M&E program design that will be part of the initial partner proposal and final cooperative agreement or contract. Partners are expected to provide quarterly progress reports which track data on established indicators under the Performance Monitoring Plan and Operational Plan, as well as to measure progress against established program goals. NRM/EG staff will conduct field visits and data quality assessments in collaboration with USG PEPFAR colleagues.
Facilitate linkage of NRM/EG &HIV/AIDS; buy in to the new procurement to tap into Horticulture opportunities to the OVC households. The activities will be implemented in Iringa, Morogoro, Arusha, Tanga and Pwani regions. Fintrac will ensure that 5% of the beneficiaries participating in their horticultural activities are HIV/AIDS/OVCs-affected households, by linking and coordinating with OVCs implementing partners in the selected regions. Fintrac will work with OVC implementing partners to effectively target households with OVCs and reducing or avoiding duplication of economic strengthening activities with existing OVCs partners in respective regions through increased coordination and linkages. Also, Fintrac will work with OVCs partners to establish demonstration plots and farms, and will select crops for nutrition and income generation and promote market linkages. Fintrac will promote new farming techniques and agricultural technologies that promote increase food security and income while reducing workload among HIV/AIDS affected households.
Expand HIV prevention activities into Natural Resource Management partner activities. Efforts will focus on building local capacity (including working through agricultural associations), implementing HIV prevention workplace programs, and ensuring sustainability of prevention activities.
