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 ZACH is to expand care and treatment on HIV & AIDS services among church related health institutions. The objectives of the program are: 1) To expand the number of church related hospitals offering OI/ART services. 2) To support the development of human resources for the provision of OI/ART services and follow up of clients at the selected facilities. 3) To support quality data management within the new OI/ART sites. 4) To provide mentorship and management support by the ZACH secretariat to program implementation sites. This project will support the HIV/AIDS national strategy and plan through an increase in the number of hospitals within the church related hospitals network providing OI/ART services in Zimbabwe. The key contribution of this program increasing the number of health institutions offering OI/ART services, as part of the National HIV&AIDS strategic plan. Implementation of this program will dovetail into the national programs as led by the MOHCW and supported by the NAC. In this regard, the program thus will complement rather than compete with the national and other programs. This program will have a significant component of in-service training and infrastructural renovations. The program will also include HIV/Tuberculosis (TB) issues through the TB screening of all HIV&AIDS clients during their routine visits to the health facilities. Preventive measures and PEP will also be made available in the workplace and for the victims of sexual violence.

Funding will support VMMC scale-up proposal.
With this funding ZACH, through a core team of staff based at HQ, will increase the number of hospitals within the church related network able to provide OI/ART services to increase access to opportunistic infections diagnosis and treatment, provision of Cotri-moxazole prophylaxis and ART to HIV positive patients.
Training of health care workers in OI/ART services will be critical to improve their ability to follow up patients on ART, reinforce the use of DOTS as a TB management strategy for co-infected patients, ensure appropriate pharmacy management, basic lab services and perform recording and reporting activities.
Minor renovations will be done in hospitals that require infrastructural adjustments for the provision of OI/ART services. Local skills and labour will be used during the renovations to increase use of locally sourced resources and also increase community ownership and support to the programme.
In addition, the project will continue to ensure that a PEP program is in place for staff and survivors of rape/sexual assault. Community care givers will also be trained to support the follow up of patients in the community.
