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.
Years of mechanism: 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016
1. Overall goals and objectives The overall goal of SDS Project is to improve social sector and HIV/AIDS and health services by providing Uganda's local governments (LGs) with appropriate tools and financial support so that they may properly manage these services. The purpose of the SDS program is to improve the results and sustainability of decentralized service delivery, with initial emphasis on health and HIV/AIDS services, at the local government level in Uganda.
2. Target populations and geographic coverage The project will target 45 districts. These will include twelve districts in the Central region (Bugiri, Iganga, Kaliro, Kamuli, Mayuge, Namutumba, Kayunga, Mpigi, Mityana, Luwero, Nakasongola, Sembabule and
Kalangala), nine districts in the Eastern region (Bukwo, Kapchorwa, Sironko, Pallisa, Kumi, Budaka, Busia, Butaleja and Bududa), nine districts in the Western region (Kiruhura, Ibanda, Bushenyi, Rukungiri, Kanungu, Kabale, Kisoro, Ntungamo and Isingiro) and nine districts in the Northern region (Gulu, Amuru, Kitgum, Pader, Lira, Dokolo, Amolatar, Apac and Oyam.)
3. Enhancing cost effectiveness and sustainability A key priority will be to support the existing national decentralization process by i) Improving coordination among all USAID supported partners at the district level, ii) Strengthening the capacity of districts and sub-counties to plan, budget, implement, coordinate, monitor and evaluate decentralized services by efficiently utilizing the GOU's administrative and fiscal decentralization framework, iii) Provision of grants to districts to complement resources needed for effective and efficient management of programs and services, and iv) Facilitating strategic innovations to improve district leadership and sustainable financing of health, HIV/AIDS and other social sector services.
4. Health Systems Strengthening The project will improve the functionality of District AIDS Committees (DACs), District AIDS Teams (DATs), Health Sub Districts (HSDs) and other district leadership and management structures as well as the overall District structure from LC1 to LC5.
5. Cross-Cutting Budget Attributions
a. Human Resources for Health The project will support refreshing and on-the job training for district and CSO staff across all the technical and administrative areas and promoting the involvement of community-based human resources in planning and implementation of activities. ($1,100,000)
b. Education Education will be promoted through working with the school system to carry out HIV prevention campaigns and behavior change interventions among children and youth. ($580,000)
g. Gender: Reducing Violence and Coercion Prevention of gender-based violence will be supported by training and conducting support supervision of the district partners to conduct action oriented community discourses on issues of gender power relations. ($1,200,000)
6. Key issues: Briefly (one sentence) identify activities in each key issue that this mechanism will address.
a. Health-Related Wraparounds o Upgrading supervisory system for HIV/AIDS and MCH programs. o Strengthen service delivery points in their management functions and team work organization. o Support and improve HMIS at all level of the health district. o Strengthen and support changes in the organization of primary health care services. o The project will facilitate district HIV/AIDS coordination and review meetings, district planning workshops, and fund M&E activities related to HIV and health.
b. Gender Gender issues will be addressed through district and CSOs conducting community mobilization activities to promote positive behaviors such as: gender equity; couple dialogue; partner counseling and testing , reducing violence and coercion and disclosure.
1. Target populations and coverage of target population or geographic area The project will target 45 district residents. These will include twelve districts in the Central region (Bugiri, Iganga, Kaliro, Kamuli, Mayuge, Namutumba, Kayunga, Mpigi, Mityana, Luwero, Nakasongola, Sembabule and Kalangala), nine districts in the Eastern region (Bukwo, Kapchorwa, Sironko, Pallisa, Kumi, Budaka, Busia, Butaleja and Bududa), nine districts in the Western region (Kiruhura, Ibanda,
Bushenyi, Rukungiri, Kanungu, Kabale, Kisoro, Ntungamo and Isingiro) and nine districts in the Northern region (Gulu, Amuru, Kitgum, Pader, Lira, Dokolo, Amolatar, Apac and Oyam.)
