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 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
The objective of this mechanism is to strengthen World Health Organization (WHO)’s technical capacity and support to the Ministry of Health (MOH) in Kenya towards accelerated implementation of combination HIV prevention interventions, strategic use of ARVs and strengthened systems for laboratory/blood transfusion services.
This objective will be fulfilled primarily through maintenance of a long-term technical assistance (TA) capacity of 3 WHO staff positions that include 1 International Professional Officer( IPO) and 2 National Professional Officers( NPO), from whom the expected technical support will be provided to the MOH. Short-term TA will be used as necessary to support the technical work of the 3 WHO staff members.
Through the IPO position, WHO will provide technical support to the MOH in the following areas: Strategic use of ART guidelines; HIV drug resistance; Global Fund; global AIDS reporting on tracking the national HIV response; UN Joint work; support to health sector on national and county capacity strengthening for the health sector; and health services delivery devolution process.
Through the NPO/HIV prevention position, WHO will provide technical support to MOH in the following areas: Policy formulation and guidelines development for Key populations including IDU, VMMC, and HTC; and support devolution process of the Kenya’s health services.
Through the NPO laboratory/blood safety position, WHO will provide technical support to MOH in the following areas: National Blood Transfusion Services and national laboratory services; regulatory framework for regulation of blood and its products; regulatory guidelines tools on blood and biological products; and SLIPTA institutionalization into MOH laboratory systems.
Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
