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 2012
In 2011 URC will continue to support the development and roll-out of Quality Improvement (QI) standards and guidelines for Community home-based care. This activity links with FHI National system strengtherning activity, supporting the development of basic minimum package. URC will provide TA to all other partners in the implementation of the QI standards. URC will work closely with NACP supporting the coordination and M&E for this activity. This is a National program.
1)Work with UNICEF, DSW and Social Welfare Officer in Bagamoyo to assess the quality of MVC services to assure compliance with standards in Bagamoyo district. 2) Work with UNICEF, DSW and Social Welfare in Bagamoyo to identify and form QI teams at service delivery levels and train them in tracking adherence to standards 3) Support 50 QI teams through coaching and mentoring adherence to standards at the national level.
These funds will be used to develop Quality Improvement standards and guidelines as related to home-based care services. URC will be the key TA partner for the QI work and they will collaborate with NACP and FHI (system Strengthening) partners in developing and supporting partners in adopting the QI framework.
Working with NACP and partners in quality improvement, URC will assist the USG to set up and scale up a quality improvement monitoring system that will track adherence, retentions and mortality and inform program progress through time. URC will also continue to support USG ability to assess and measure the quality of integrated PMTCT/RCHS services and other HIV related programs operating on the Maternal Child Health Platform.
