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 objective of this activity is to increase access of young vulnerable children in Swaziland toquality basic health, education and social services while supporting the national effort to strengthenNeighborhood Care Points (NCPs) and building local capacity for monitoring these efforts. The targetgroups are:• 10,000 vulnerable children that attend 200 NCPs located throughout Swaziland• 100,000 children, representing 80% of the total population of children under five, reached with highimpact health interventions during the National Child Health Days• 8,410 primary school children in selected marginalized schools who will benefit from improved qualityeducation services.
USAID will build on an existing agreement with UNICEF to implement the Swaziland Together for GirlsPartnership. The Partnership will move evidence to action, using the results of the 2007 Child ViolenceSurvey, lessons learned from multiple years of investment in community child protection efforts, results ofa child protection systems mapping exercise and opportunities identified in the PEPFAR SwazilandGender Strategy to launch a program that will model effective interventions to prevent and respond tosexual violence. Regional best practices that have demonstrated results will be drawn on to develop adetailed concept paper that will be used an advocacy and resource mobilization tool. The Partnership willleverage resources from other donors, harness local civil society and Government stakeholderinvolvement and coordinate closely with ongoing PEPFAR funded activities in order to realize synergiesand achieve maximum impact against USG's investment.
Strategic Area Budget Code Planned Amount
The activity builds on the first year of PEPFAR funding for the NCP initiative and will extend support to anew set of 200 NCPs, enabling them to provide services to an additional 10,000 children. In line with theGKOS' National Plan of Action (NPA) for Children (2011-2015) and the National Strategic Plan for NCPs,the activity contributes towards scaling up of quality services for vulnerable children, strengthenscoordination and national leadership and promotion of greater linkages and synergy at community level.There are six main components as follows:1. Supporting implementation of basic health services;2. Improving the quality of early childhood care and development and psychosocial support services;3. Strengthening the coordination and management of the NCP initiative nationally;4. Supporting the implementation of Free Primary Education;5. Developing M&E capacity for the NCP initiative, as well as for children's programming nationally; and6. Facilitating the child protection systems mapping and assessment process and identifying andprioritizing actions in the Child Protection and Welfare Bill and the NPA for Children.
Funding will be utilized to support service delivery, strengthening national level coordination andmanagement, child protection systems mapping and assessment, development of a strategy to build anintegrated and comprehensive national child protection systems. In addition a full-time Monitoring &Evaluation Specialist (co-funded with UNICEF) and a Child Protection Officer - OVC/systemsstrengthening will be supported.
