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 Regional Centre for Quality of Health Care operates in 27 countries and aims to provide leadership in
building regional capacity to improve quality of health care by promoting evidence based practices through
networking, strategic partnerships, education, training and research.
Working with Ministry of Health (MOH), districts and pediatric care and treatment providers including
Mildmay, Joint Clinical research center(JCRC) and Pediatric Infectious Disease Clinic (PIDC), this activity
will develop and disseminate policy/guidelines and standards on pediatric care and treatment, train health
workers and implement mentoring programs for designated pediatric ART champions at districts, health sub
-districts and health facilities. This activity will support MOH to develop and implement quality improvement
models for pediatric ART and develop models for integration of nutrition, the "family model of care" and
laboratory diagnostics in pediatric ART services. The program will draw on regional experiences of the
Africa Network for Care and Children with AIDS (ANECCA). This will activity will build capacity of health
workers to identify and diagnose or refer HIV-exposed and infected children for care and treatment.
The program will develop a structured system for providing support supervision and mentoring of health
workers that care for HIV-exposed and infected children to improve treatment outcomes. It is estimated that
over 2,000 health workers ranging from physicians, nurses, counselors, community health workers and
expert clients will be trained.
One key activity for this program will be to develop a training curriculum for people living with HIV/AIDS to
do community mobilization for increased utilization of pediatric care and treatment services.
