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.

The Ambassador's Fund for AIDS Public Diplomacy uses PEPFAR funds to support HIV/AIDS-related public affairs activities and promising activities designed by small community organizations and youth groups. These projects, though relatively modest compared to the broader PEPFAR efforts, are making significant contributions to the fight against HIV by addressing stigma and discrimination in the community. Special emphasis will be placed on funding diplomacy related events that further the broader information sharing goals of the Emergency Plan. With the public coverage generated by PEPFAR, in addition to the experience in grant application and implementation gained, it is expected that funded groups will be able to identify other resources to support their programs in the future. All actvities are evaluated for impact and messaging on an annual basis.
The U.S. Ambassadors Fund for HIV/AIDS Public Diplomacy will continue to support activities to raise general awareness of the HIV/AIDS epidemic among communities with people infected and affected by HIV, and promote community and national-level dialogue on stigma and discrimination reduction against people living with HIV. it will also serve as a platform to increase public awareness of USG/PEPFAR's support for the national HIV ersponse. The PEPFAR Coordination Office oversees management of this fund, and its staff work with host government authorities for licensing and mutual communication on public diplomacy programs and monitoring grant implementation by government and NGOs to ensure appropriate branding, design, messaging, implementation, and media coverage. Grant awards may range from $5,000-$10,000 each.
