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.

PEPFAR will support Opinions Research Corporation - Macro (ORC/Macro) to provide technical training of trainers (TOT) and curriculum development for MOH staff responsible for the supervision of M&E activities in Vietnam. ORC/Macro will adapt proven introductory, intermediate, and advanced M&E training for HIV/AIDS setting in Vietnam. ORC/Macro will partner closely with MOH/VAAC, NIHE, and national universities to develop M&E capacity and institutionalized training programs in M&E providing both in-service and pre-service training. While NIHE still has delegated to them responsibility for the national M&E framework, VAAC is responsible for oversight of all HIV/AIDS programs in Vietnam. Both of these agencies will be key partners in the implementation of the framework and the establishment of the national M&E information system. ORC/Macro will provide TA to two organizations, NIHE and VAAC, and M&E training to 10 staff responsible for providing oversight to the National HIV/AIDS M&E System.
