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
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
The WHO Consolidated Grant supports collaborative activities with USAID and WHO in infectious diseases, maternal and child health, environmental health, and HIV. The umbrella grant to WHO consolidates most of the Bureau for Global Health agreements with WHO under one mechanism. The grant supports broad USAID-WHO collaboration at WHO headquarters in Geneva and regional and country offices in tuberculosis, malaria and other vector borne diseases, disease surveillance, research, antimicrobial resistance, maternal and child health and HIV.
This funding allows WHO Vietnam to provide in-country technical assistance to the national TB program with these objectives:
-Assist implementation of the 2011-2015 National Strategic Plan on TB Control (NSP) and develop the 2016-2020 NSP;
-Planning and implementation of Global Fund TB activities;
-Assist implementation of the 2010-2015 MDR expansion plan to treat 6,310 MDR patients by 2015;
-Improved case finding, including developing tools and guidelines to implement TB control plans related to public-private mix (PPM), MDR-TB management and TB/HIV;
-Work with National TB program (NTP) to strengthen quality of TB control and MDR-TB, including collaboration between hospitals and NTP in providing high-quality TB/MDR-TB management;
-Work with partners to accelerate implementation of TB-HIV activities;
-Strengthen health systems to improve comprehensive human resource development;
-Strengthen monitoring and evaluation to guide management of MDR-TB and TB-HIV programs and collaborative activities.
Geographic coverage is at the national level.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
