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.
Management and staffing costs for the additional Department of State staff: The Public Diplomacy Officer
(Public Diplomacy section) and the Economic Counselor (Economic section) are Strategic Planning group
members and participate actively on HIV/AIDS issues. The Public Diplomacy (PD) activities develop mass
media campaigns for HIV prevention, but also seek to coordinate across agencies to ensure exposure to
key audiences for PEPFAR achievements. the PD program also seeks to coordinate effort that maximizes
the development of partnerships with minimal duplication. Mission implementing agencies (USAID, CDC,
and DOD) provide the technical expertise to manage programs, but final decisions are made by consensus
of the HIV/AIDS task force members. The Chief of Mission, through the DCM, would make a final call if the
best efforts of the task force did not result in a consensus position. This arrangement is subject to change
to align with the incoming Ambassador's vision for HIV/AIDS collaboration in DRC.
