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.
In FY 2013 USAID will use funds originally obligated to PSI in FY 2012 for a similar activity and PD&L funds to work through the Measure Project in order to improve the collection, analysis, and presentation of HIV data. The project will focus on secondary analysis of DHS studies in Guatemala, El Salvador and Costa Rica. Specific activities will include the compilation of indicators, data analysis, and presentation of findings to promote better data use in planning, policymaking, managing, monitoring, and evaluating HIV programs. The following results are expected: increased user demand for data and tools; increased individual and institutional capacity in monitoring and evaluation; increased collaboration and coordination in obtaining and sharing health sector data; improved tools, methodologies, and technical guidance; increased availability of data, methods, and tools; and increased facilitation of data use. Note that no FY2013 funds are being requested for this activity.
