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.

PACT will continue to provide technical assistance to all directorates of the MGECW (Child Welfare, Community Development, and Gender), including 2 staff seconded for OVC and ECD, for improved planning and management systems, especially in relation to the scheduled devolution of functions to the regions under the decentralization framework.

PACT's support to the Directorate of Child Welfare to manage the OVC response will include support to coordinate the new National Plan of Action for OVC currently under preparation, and to strengthen the multi-sectoral coordination of the OVC response through the Permanent Task Force on OVC. This will involve further strengthening of the Permanent Task Force on OVC and its sub-national structures (regional OVC forums), and improved coordination between GRN and CSO efforts. Technical assistance will be provided to ensure sectoral obligations to OVC are being met by partner ministries (besides MoHSS, Min of Home Affairs, Min of Agriculture).
Support the MOE's implementation of the National Plan of Action for OVC through the PTF:
Technical assistance will be provided through the MGECW-coordinated PTF on OVC to ensure Ministry of Education sectoral obligations to OVC.
Maximize efficiencies in the delivery of vulnerability grants and social services through MGECW:

>>UPDATED Narrative for October 2011 Reprogramming: $13,620 was removed so that the mechanism does not exceed its ceiling as specified in the agreement. These funds will be allocated for the follow-on award. Continued support to the MGECW for the implementation of a sustainable data sharing strategy and overall M&E technical assistance, to guide the development of an IT team within the MGECW and expansion of M&E TA, mentoring support to all 4 Directorates of the MGECW.
Estimated Budget = $230,000
Finalization and transition of support for SI and M&E related data management needs and support for resources related to OVC systems and programs.

PACT will expand its technical support for monitoring and evaluation (including information systems) beyond the Child Welfare directorate to address the needs of other directorates. For example, technical support will be provided to mentor and train key IT staff in database administration from all directorates within the Ministry. In so doing, PACT will provide programmatic support to foster greater linkages, quality, and harmonization of various data tools and databases used throughout the ministry. Thus, the MGECW will be better equipped to synthesize and inform policy and programming decisions for Gender, ECD, and Child welfare.
>>Updated Narrative for Oct. 2011 Reprogramming: $7,109 was removed so that the mechanism does not exceed its ceiling as specified in the agreement. These funds will be allocated for the follow-on award. Technical support to implement the Ministry's Human Resources Strategic Plan and training plan.
Estimated Budget = $149,654
In a recent HR gap analysis, the MGECW has identified numerous human resource gaps and deficiencies such as the shortage of social workers. To address these issues (including those relating to recruitment and retention) the Ministry has developed a new human resources strategic plan as well as a revised staff establishment. Pact will support the Ministry to operationalize this plan and staff establishment. Specific tasks will include the development of an implementation plan, revision of job descriptions where needed, and development of manuals and other communication materials to communicate details to staff.
It should be noted that USG COP 11 funds, through HS 20/20, will also be used to support the Ministry of Health and Social Services to role out its new HR strategy. Because both the MGECW and MOHSS include social workers in their staff establishments, PACT and HS 20/20 will work with their respective Ministries to better coordinate relevant areas of overlap in the Ministries' staff establishments for maximum impact.
