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.
This activity compliments activity 8393-Orphans and Vulnerable Children. Over the last year, the USG through the US Embassy Small Grants Office successfully administered a similar activity that awarded grants to community groups providing care and support for Orphans and Vulnerable Children.
This activity will use the same model to fund grass roots organizations in underserved areas to provide care and support to PHAS. Projects could include small income generating activities for women's HIV/AIDS networks or enhancements for rural health clinics.
This activity compliments activity 8394- Palliative Care: Basic Health Care and Support. It is to support grassroots programs in the delivery of HIV/AIDS services. Financial and technical support will be given to community and faith-based projects providing HIV/AIDS services at the grassroots level. The focus will be on community support to orphans and people living with HIV/AIDS.
Over the last fiscal year, this activity has funded 22 projects in underserved communities around Uganda. Orphans and vulnerable children have benefited from vocational training, school upgrades, rural-based health clinic construction, and clean water projects.
This year, the Embassy will continue to identify and fund similar projects designed and implemented at the grass roots level.
This funding will support for the employment of a Program Assistant to the PEPFAR Office as well as cover public affairs activities.
The Program Assistant will provide operational and logistical assistance to the Co-ordinator and the USG country team for the implementation of Emergency Plan programs. In additional, public affairs publications and activities will be developed and implemented to ensure to that the Emergency Plan initiative in Uganda is fully understood and appreciated.
The budget for ICASS costs is $10,400.
The public affairs activities will include the following: (1) development and dissemination of PEPFAR Uganda informational packets; (2) a PEPFAR press conference and related activities to coincide with World AIDS Day; (3) the production and dissemination of a Ugandan version of Voices of Hope video using the B-roll footage from the global Voices of Hope production; and (4) a series of writing workshops for the implementing partners' communication specialists so that they may develop powerful success stories.
