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.
Years of mechanism: 2010 2011
The Kilicafe OVC Scholarship Fund will pay the educational expenses of an anticipated 100 OVC to attend public secondary schools. The objectives of this activity are (a) to provide an opportunity for OVCs, who are performing well in primary school, to attend secondary school and (b) to involve coffee cooperative members in HIV/AIDS mitigation. This endeavor will contribute to the Partnership Framework Goal 3: Leadership, Management, Accountability, and Governance. More specifically, it will to build the capacity of non-state actors at national and local levels in the response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
OVCs living in the coffee growing areas of Arusha, Kilimanjaro, Manyara, Mbeya and Mbinga will be beneficiaries of this activity. This is because the Kilicafe OVC Scholarship Fund is being established by the Association of Kilimanjaro Specialty Coffee Growers (AKSCG), which is a registered association comprised of 35 farmer groups in the Kilimanjaro, Arusha and Manyara area, 109 groups in the Mbinga area and 2 groups in the Mbeya area. Kilicafe is both the brand name of their premium coffee and the name of the company that exports AKSCG's coffee to roaster companies abroad.
This activity will be linked to USAID/Tanzania's new OVC Secondary and Vocational School Scholarship Program. In addition, the Kilicafe OVC Scholarship Fund will be coordinated with the OVC programs in the various coffee growing areas of the AKSCG.
This activity provides relief to both the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health and Social Welfare by mobilizing resources and organizational expertise from community-based for-profit cooperatives. Through PPPs such as this, PEPFAR lays the foundation from its exit by engaging the private sector in the response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Kilicafe is required to submit quarterly progress reports that document the results being achieved.
OVCs are the innocent victims of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and many good performing learners dropout of the educational system because their guardians simply cannot afford the school expenses. The Kilicafe OVC Scholarship Fund will pay the educational expenses of OVC to attend public secondary schools. The scholarships will vary from Redacted per year and require contributions from parents, guardians or others for any additional miscellaneous expenses not covered by the grant. The individual parent or guardian of the child submits an application that requires certification by the Head Teacher that the child has passed his/her primary examinations. The Head of a public secondary school must also certify on the application that the child is admitted into that school. The completed application then is submitted to the manager or secretary of the primary cooperative where the parent or guardian is a member.
PPPs inherently are targeted leveraging mechanisms. The Association of Kilimanjaro Specialty Coffee Growers (AKSCG), which is a registered association involving 170 farmer groups comprising 12,000 smallholder members, sell their premium coffee, known as Kilicafe, to roasters abroad through a company also called Kilicafe. In 2004/2005 ten containers of specialty coffee, under the brand name of Kilicafe, were exported by AKSCG directly to roasters such as VolCafe, Gepa Fairtrade, Lister & Beisler, Peet's Coffee & Tea and Starbucks Coffee. By the 2008/09 season the association was able to secure a market for 48 containers of Kilicafe coffee from Starbucks alone. Some of these overseas roasters have expressed interest in contributing to the scholarship fund, thus laying the foundation for PEPFAR's exit after the roasters solidify their partnership with Kilicafe OVC Scholarship Fund as a routine investment in corporate social responsibility.
