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 new TB project is being procured via the USAID TASC 2 IQC. The project will assist the MoH to decrease the TB burden by reducing TB morbidity and mortality, and enable the GoU (in partnership with other stakeholders) to implement effective and strategic actions to improve quality of TB services, including the prevention, detection and treatment of TB, MDR TB and XDR TB, as well as the prevention of rapid growth in the rate of TB/HIV co-infection.
The purpose of this program is to improve the quality and expand the availability of WHO-recommended DOTS-based TB services; create a safer medical environment in TB/HIV settings by improving infection control standards and practices; build the capacity to implement programmatic management of drug resistant TB; and improve access to TB/HIV co-infection services in 10 USAID-supported regions over the first two years. By the end of year two, following an external evaluation, the project will expand services to two other regions with high or medium TB burden. The project will contribute to the USG strategy for HSS in service delivery quality, and national, regional, and local leadership in health care. The activity complements the GF TB project and will work closely with them to leverage these additional resources.
The new project will work closely with GoU and WHO, which are leading and coordinating the anti-TB program. This project will provide TA to reach TB/HIV co-infected patients and support the goals of USAIDs other health projects in HIV and family planning by reinforcing messages related to prevention of disease transmission and appropriate Tx and follow-up. The project contributes to Partnership Framework goals and objectives and supports the GHI principle related to sustainability and quality services.
This project is under procurement. The budget code narrative can be updated upon award and after development of the project's first year workplan.
Objectives under this project include improving the quality and availability of WHO-recommended DOTS- based TB services through building institutional capacity to provide quality services. Activities include updating the formal medical education system, establishing a TB training resource center, and strengthening TB M&E and surveillance. Other activities include expanding access to TB services, and conducting operations research to strengthen the National TB Program's performance. The project will work with the Ministry of Health to strengthen a safer medical environment in TB and HIV settings by improving infection control standards and practices and strengthening capacity to oversee and evaluate infection control interventions.
Project activities will also align to Ukraine's Partnership Framework and national TB/HIV policies. The winning applicant will coordinate project planning and implementation with the Ministry of Health, Global Fund, and other partners providing TB/HIV technical assistance. The project is designed to strengthen the capacity of the Ukrainian public sector to upgrade and oversee a state-of-the-art national TB/HIV response. Technical approaches include inculcating technical standards and approaches through the formal medical education system while working with the Ukrainian Ministry of Health to directly implement protocols and procedures that align to WHO's international standards in TB/HIV and infection control. The winning applicant will propose an M&E approach that reports high-quality data using the national TB/HIV M&E framework, as well as report progress against project indicators.
