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 University of California San Francisco (UCSF) is one of several U.S. Universities selected to provide training and technical assistance to HIV/AIDS programs domestically and internationally. Using this University Technical Assistance Program (UTAP), PEPFAR countries are afforded a direct mechanism to support the transfer of HIV/AIDS expertise across continents and countries. UCSF faculty and staff are available to assist with the development of innovative models to address specific program area project activities; to contribute to the implementation of key initiatives to inform national policy; and, to provide training opportunities both locally and internationally for service providers and program managers on inventive strategies for the care and treatment services. Beginning in FY04, UCSF provided PEPFAR Implementing Partners training and technical assistance opportunities to address PMTCT services; ARV treatment updates; strategic information support; and, national policy development and dissemination. Continuing in FY07, a UCSF in-country technical advisor will provide technical assistance to the MOH PMTCT technical committee on provision of in-service trainings, and development of curricula and training guidelines for program and policy staff. In addition, the advisor will continue work with Tororo District Hospital (TDH) to implement the PMTCT program initiated in FY05. This program supports the development of appropriate protocols and standards of care in the hospital to ensure increased uptake of PMTCT services, and to build a family focused approach to PMTCT through linkages with comprehensive HIV care and treatment services. Support and supervision for project activities and TDH staff will be enhanced to ensure the program develops into a suitable, sustainable and replicable service within the constraints of Uganda public hospital systems. The development of the hospital's health information system to monitor and evaluate PMTCT activities has been finalized and technical assistance on implementation continues. Program level data is being analyzed to identify relevant operational PMTCT clinical and managerial issues, and to inform the district hospital and national program on directions service enhancements and future directions. Finally, as PMTCT activities are tested and proven effective, the advisor will facilitate vital linkages between the Ministry of Health PMTCT program, district hospitals and key national stakeholders, to generate further policy development, operational guidelines and training materials for us at the facility level.
This activity also relates to 8370-PMTCT, 8369-Other/Policy analysis and system strengthening, 8372-SI.

Continuing in FY07, the UCSF in-country technical advisor will provide support for the implementation of ARV treatment and care activities funded through the Emergency Plan. Following the initial design of a national ARV Quality Assurance system in FY05, the advisor will provide technical assistance and coordination to CDC-Uganda's 7 implementing partners providing antiretroviral therapy (ART) and basic HIV clinical care at over 50 facilities in Uganda. Through participation on the MOH ARV subcommittee, current care and treatment information will be made available to inform national treatment and clinical protocols. In addition, the advisor will assist with the formulation of strategies for the PEPFAR Uganda care and treatment workgroup including comprehensive ARV care and delivery and programs to improve adherence and improve services at all sites. These programs will be designed and implemented for different clinic service delivery models. In-service training sessions for clinic staff will be offered throughout the year to address issues identified in HIV/AIDS treatment and care. Finally, the advisor will continue to provide direct programmatic support for the design and implementation of The AIDS Support Organization (TASO) home-based ARV treatment and care program.
