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 provides sustainable income and housing, which will serve a total of 3,840 OVC. UGAFODE will focus on expanding microfinance through the provision of credit and insurance products in order to increase the sustainability of family incomes and therefore, increase the capacity of families and communities to care for OVC. Most of UGAFODE's clients are women, increasing the women's access to sustainable income. 3,200 OVC in Bushenyi, Ntungamo and Mbarara districts will be served through microfinance and/or income support for the family. HFHU will accelerate the provision of housing to OVC and families caring for OVC, by specifically targeting vulnerable families and assisting them to either construct new housing or improve existing housing. HFH's methodology incorporates short and long-term volunteers from the US in assisting with construction of homes. 640 OVC in the Bugiri, Hoima, Jinja, Kamuli, Luwero, Masindi, Mbale, Mukono, Nakasongola, Pallisa, Sironko, and Wakiso districts will be served through the provision of new or improved housing.The program also provides training of caregivers to support OVC and training of OVC in life skills. UGAFODE and HFHU will both offer training and education to their clients and caregivers in the community in order to increase the capacity of communities and caregivers to support OVC. Training will be based on the "Facing AIDS Together" curricula developed by World Relief and Freedom from Hunger. HFHU will also work specifically to increase awareness and protection of the rights of women and children to inherit and maintain property. Additionally, UGAFODE and HFHU will work together to offer an apprenticeship program for OVC to gain marketable or employable skills. Where possible, OVC will be encouraged to participate in all program activities, increasing their capacity to provide for their own needs.Through this activity, stigma and discrimination, gender issues are addressed. UGAFODE and HH are providing education related to stigmatization and discrimination to caregivers as one of HIV/AIDS sensitization programs . Both institutions provide micro-credit and housing to caregivers irrespective of their HIV status. By building the businesses of caretakers of OVCs through microcredit, this activity increases their capacity to avoid risky relationships that could lead to contracting HIV. Under Youth apprenticeship program, vocational skills to the OVCs including girls will enable them to be engaged in income generating activities for their sustainability.
