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.
Continuing Activity
Macro will continue implementation of Guyana's first Demographic Health Survey (DHS) during FY09,
including the AIDS Indicator Survey (AIS) module. Survey planning exercises completed during FY08
include pre-testing of the survey instrument, training of field supervisors, all arrangements related to
contract negotiation and finalization. Activities to be conducted during FY09 include training of field
interviewers, data collection, data entry and cleaning, report writing and report dissemination. As a
nationally-representative household survey, the DHS will provide essential information on a wide range of
monitoring and impact indicators including reproduction, marriage patterns, sexual behavior, condom use,
experience with sexually transmitted infections (STIs), treatment of self-reported STIs, knowledge and
attitudes related to HIV/AIDS, stigma and discrimination, PMTCT, coverage of HIV-testing services, and
medical injections, as well as ownership and use of mosquito nets, care and support for chronically ill
persons, persons who have died, and orphans and vulnerable children.
Guyana has never implemented a DHS, and the survey is a priority for the Ministry of Health (MOH) as it
will provide information required for meeting HIV/AIDS program reporting requirements and will ensure
comparability on standard HIV/AIDS indicators across countries and over time. The DHS has been part of
the USG SI plan for the past four years, and USG continues to be encouraged by the GoG and international
donor community alike to ensure that this survey is in the forefront of the SI plan for Guyana.
Implementation of this survey will demonstrate strong collaboration between the USG, GoG, and donor
community to the achievement of common objectives.
The DHS will take the place of the second round of the AIS, which was originally implemented in 2004. It
should be noted that the cost difference between implementation of an AIS and DHS is not significant. The
USAID Latin American and Caribbean Bureau has covered the cost difference between implementation of
an AIS and implementation of a DHS.
