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.
Under the leadership of the Ambassador, the U.S. Embassy (Department of State) will continue to serve as
the coordinating body of PEPFAR. In FY 2009, the PEPFAR Coordination Office will be comprised of six
full-time staff that will manage the State PEPFAR programs and coordinate the overall USG effort. The
Office will be led by the PEPFAR Coordinator, a GS civil service appointee supported by the HHS/Office of
Global Health Affairs mechanism; other PEPFAR Coordination Office staff are described in HVMS #3359
and #3725.
The PEPFAR Coordinator serves as the Ambassador's and Deputy Chief of Mission's principal advisor on
PEPFAR. This Coordinator also works closely with all USG agency directors, senior technical staff, and the
Government of the Republic of Zambia (GRZ) to develop and implement the PEPFAR program in Zambia.
Based in the U.S. Embassy and reporting directly to the Deputy Chief of Mission, this position oversees the
development and implementation of the $269M+ HIV/AIDS program by coordinating the five different USG
agencies' planning, overall management, budgeting, and reporting processes.
The Coordinator ensures that all country program decisions abide by OGAC policy and requirements and
with congressionally mandated budgetary earmarks. The Coordinator serves as the Mission's point of
contact with the Office of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator (OGAC), USG agencies (CDC, DOD, Peace
Corps, State, and USAID), the GRZ (including the Zambia Defense Force), and the donor community. This
position takes the lead for the Mission in ensuring formal collaborations around HIV/AIDS with the UK,
Dutch, and other major bilateral HIV/AIDS donors. The Coordinator is a member of the Mission's Country
Team. The incumbent in this position also serves a key role in liaising with the donor community to ensure
that PEPFAR programs complement and support other donors' work with appropriate GRZ governmental
and nongovernmental entities. In addition, the Coordinator works closely with the National AIDS Council in
ensuring that PEPFAR continues to support the national strategy and objectives for HIV and AIDS.
This position will be funded 100% through PEPFAR funds in FY 2009; salary and benefits will be supported
by this mechanism, and travel, training, and other administrative costs will be supported by the Department
of State mechanism providing administrative support to the PEPFAR Coordination Office (HVMS #3359)
