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 overall goal of the activities of this Church Network mechanism is to expand prevention, care and treatment on HIV & AIDS services among church related health institutions.
The objectives of the program are:
1) Strengthen and expand the provision of HIV and AIDS prevention, care and treatment programs including home based care within the church related hospitals not yet offering OI/ART services. 2) Increase the skills of the human resources in church related hospitals in the management of HIV & AIDS and Opportunistic infections.
This project will support the HIV/AIDS national strategy and plan through an increase in the network of hospitals providing OI/ART services in Zimbabwe.
The coverage of activities for this program will be national and targeting those church related institutions who are not yet offering OI/ART services for adults and/or children.
The key contributions of this program to health systems strengthening will be an increase in the network of health institutions offering OI/ART services for adults and children.
REDACTED. To become an OI/ART site, staff will need training and mentorship to acquire the confidence in the management of patients and some changes in the physical infrastructure will need to be done to ensure adequate conditions for the provision of services.
PEPFAR key issues addressed within this program will include child survival activities through the integration of routine immunization, growth monitoring, feeding counseling and treatment of life-threatening childhood illness within the services provided to HIV exposed and HIV positive children in the target health institutions. TB issues are going to be addressed among the care offered to all HIV positive patients as TB is the main Opportunistic infection in PLHIV. Workplace issues will be addressed in the target institutions to ensure that health care workers will have access to preventive measures and post-exposure prophylaxis if needed. Post-exposure prophylaxis will be offered to rape/sexual assault survivors too.
REDACTED. Supervisory/mentorship visits to sites close by in the same trip to cut on travel expenses.
Monitoring and Evaluation of the activities will be done through quarterly progress reports based on a detailed implementation plan and supervisory visits reports.
FY10 funds will be used in the scaling up of OI/ART services in church related hospitals/clinics with no OI/ART programs. This is in order to increase access to Opportunistic infections diagnosis and treatment, provision of Cotrimoxazole prophylaxis and ART to HIV positive patients. This will include strengthening institutional capacity to diagnose, treat and manage opportunistic infections, training of health care workers in the initiation and follow up of patients on ART, reinforce the use of DOTS as a TB management strategy for co-infected patients and strengthening laboratory and pharmacy management, mainly related to stock management and recording and reporting activities. Besides these activities, we will ensure that a PEP program is in place for the staff and survivors of rape/sexual assault and that community involvement is done to improve the follow up of patients under care.
FY10 funds will be used to support those OI/ART clinics within the church related hospitals network that are not yet providing OI/ART services for children. This service will be set up with a family approach and comprehensive provision of services that would include psychological, social, spiritual, nutritional and preventive services. These activities would target HIV exposed and HIV infected children to improve the quality of care and follow up being done at institutional level and community level through the involvement of community health workers. Early infant diagnosis will be a key intervention to incorporate in this program.
