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.
In FY08 CDC will continue to work with Health Strategies International, a U.S. health economics consulting
firm, to finalize the cost-effectiveness evaluation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) using a home-based model
for ART delivery (HBAC) in Tororo. The project which has evaluated the impact of ART on household
economics in rural Uganda is based on HBAC I data as well as previous evaluation data from CDC-Uganda
for cotrimoxazole and the safe water vessel. As applicable,the impact on family members was also be
assessed. A sub-component of the evaluation is to conduct time and motion studies of various service
providers within ART programs, including field officers, counselors, laboratory technicians and medical
officers. Final results will be shared initially with the primary partners in the project, MOH and The AIDS
Support Organisation (TASO), and then will be disseminated broadly. Project implementation also includes
training in data collection, data analysis and the preparation of presentations and manuscripts for
dessmemination.
