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
The main objective of the Health Informatics Training and Research Advancement Centre project is to strengthen the management of Human Resources for Health in Zimbabwe. This program provides information on the number of health care workers available at all health care levels by training skills, distribution and other variables. The project targets all health workforce of Zimbabwe in the public sector. The key contribution of this program is a fully functional database at all levels (National, Provincial and District level) that will enable policy makers to make strategic decisions related to Human Resources for Health. The impact of this project will be enhanced through collaboration with the Health Informatics Public Private Partnership (HI-PPP) which will provide additional technical support to the Zimbabwean Human Resource Information System (ZHRIS) programmers. In 2012, this project is focused on strengthening connectivity, training in both system usage and data driven decision support systems. The system will track of human resources of the health sector at all levels throughout the health system, from their licensure to their deployment and retirement outcomes. In year 2, the project will support processes that look at human resources for health demand and supply dynamics. Monitoring and evaluation of the project activities will be done through site visits, training reports, procurement records and other relevant tools that will allow tracking of the project and consolidation of the information into quarterly progress reports.

COP12 resources will allow: 1) expansion of the existing program to 3 additional provinces, 2) expansion of training of personnel in data capture and analysis, 3) maintenance of the existing networks, 4) inclusion of additional professional regulatory bodies in the system, and 5) training in data and information use. This new mechanism will continue to support development of the HRIS where the former partner left off.
