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.
Activities during FY 2008 fell under the following areas: infrastructure development, blood collection and
testing, promotion of appropriate clinical usage of blood, quality assurance, training, monitoring and
evaluation, and sustainability. The UBTS operates 7 regional blood banks, of those, only 2 are purpose built
with adequate space. The new regional blood bank in the east, at Mbale was commissioned and another
one in the southwest, at Mbarara has also been completed. The national reference centre in Kampala, at
Nakasero is now too small to conduct all activities, with FY 08 funding it is being expanded and renovated.
The refurbishment of these administrative headquarters and reference laboratory at Nakasero blood bank
will soon begin following the selection of a consultant and contractor by the Regional Procurement Support
Office (RPSO). Two more regional blood banks will be constructed in FY2008 in the west, at Fort Portal and
north, at Gulu to enable improved functioning of these regional blood banks. Laboratory equipment and
back-up generators will be purchased and installed in these units. Another two regional blood banks will be
constructed in northwest, at Arua and central, at Masaka in FY 2009.
