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 relates to support of the Blood Safety program in Uganda, which is implemented by the Uganda
Blood Transfusion Services (UBTS). The main activities include; blood safety, counseling and testing,
infrastructure development and clinical use. The Sanquin Consulting Services (SCS) was founded in 2001
as an autonomous part of the Sanquin Blood Supply Foundation, Netherlands, with the goal of providing
technical assistance on safe and sustainable blood supply systems in resource limited countries including
Uganda.
Since late 2004, in collaboration with UBTS, the Sanquin team has provided technical assistance towards
human capacity building through focused teaching and training at various levels of staff and clinicians
involved in medical transfusion services and assisted in the development of a quality system and quality
management system to strengthen the operations in the regional blood banks. Their assistance has led to
an increase of both quantity and quality of blood collected and distributed by the national program.
Also a major contribution was provided to the design and construction of appropriate good manufacturing
practice (GMP) - compliant regional blood bank facilities in the eastern (Mbale) and south western regions
(Mbarara); and the design of expanded renovated facilities for the national referral laboratory and UBTS
headquarters in the capital city, Kampala.
The main areas of focus for SCS in FY 2009 will be on human capacity building at managerial and
operational level (sustainability), technical advice in the design and construction of 2 regional blood bank
facilities in the northern (Gulu) and western (Fort Portal) regions, which are paramount for the
implementation of more advanced operations. Other areas of emphasis will include improving data
collection to contribute to an increase of repeat donors and further reduction in their HIV prevalence;
continued technical assistance towards the implementation of quality assurance activities - development of
processes and standards, monitoring & evaluation to ensure effectiveness and efficiency; and the
continuation of the program for the clinical interface and rational clinical use of blood.
