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 Strengthening Democratic Linkages (Linkages) program seeks additional resources to continue its work
in support of the HIV/AIDS and Social Services Committees of Parliament. Support would include working
to enhance the legal framework for protection of rights of and access to healthcare for those affected and
infected with HIV/AIDS, particularly through working to support initiatives focused on pending legislation
such as the HIV/AIDS control bill and sexual offences bill. Parliamentary Committees will also be
supported to hear the voices of the people particularly those at the grassroots (sub-county and village level)
as well as challenges faced by service providers. The Linkages program will support programs which will
improve and increase the exercise of the oversight role of Parliament, Local Government and Civil Society
regarding the expenditure of HIV/AIDS resources. Linkages will also support advocacy efforts of CSOs
particularly at the district and sub county levels to the higher local governments and national foras to
articulate issues, challenges and needs at district and grassroots levels. Support will also be provided to
enable the Parliamentary Committees to provide national leadership by using the media to disseminate key
message that support the national response to the epidemic. Activities will also include more general
capacity building and outreach and support to Members of Parliament, Local Government and Civil Society
in the fight against corruption in Uganda which has a direct impact on the expenditure of PEPFAR
resources.
