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 will contribute to the Uganda Blood Transfusion Services (UBTS) activities in Blood Safety and
Counseling and Testing. In FY08 the Regional Procurement Support Office [RPSO] will contribute to
strengthen UBTS blood bank services throughout Uganda.
Specific activities are to construct a regional blood bank in Fort Portal, western Uganda and expand
capacity at the national referral laboratory at UBTS headquarters.
The regional blood bank in Fort Portal currently operates in an old diplapidated building provided by Fort
Portal regional hospital. It supports over 30 health facilities in the region and has a current capacity of
about 10,000 blood units per year which is expected to increase to 20,000 blood units per year after
construction is completed. This new premises will house a blood donor area, blood collection, processing,
testing and storage area, blood reception and issuing area and staff offices.
