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: 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.
Goal: To improve resource allocation at national, state and local levels for HIV-AIDS programing in line with USG strategy and the Nigeria President’s Comprehensive Response Plan for HIV-AIDS (PCRP) and expand health insurance to include PLWHA to reduce Out of Pocket expenditures through community health insurance system. HFG will work with NACA, NPHCDA, NHIS, FMoH, Federal Ministry of Finance and focus state (Akwa-Ibom, Cross River, Lagos & Rivers) counterpart agencies to generate sufficient revenues to support a good healthcare system. The focus states were chosen because of the high burden of HIV/AIDS in them and they are states USAID will be leading post rationalization. To accomplish their goal, HFG will work to: Enhance GON capacity to collect and analyze costing information to scale-up and sustain HIV-AIDS services, and to use such evidence to generate adequate internal resources for the national program; link financing and budgeting to performance to ensure more efficient, effective and equitable use of resources; Develop investment case scenarios; Improve the capacity of GoN to budget more accurately for HIV/AIDS programs and negotiate appropriate level of resources; Obtain private sector buy-in for funding of HIV/AIDS programs; Increase the efficiency of resource allocation by applying reliable resource tracking tool(s) and collaborate with GoN staff to develop a framework for transparency and accountability. The objectives of the project include enhanced ability of GON in health financing and policy analysis to effectively engage in budgetary dialogue and to be able to plan and execute resource mobilization strategies. The PCRP outlines the GON’s commitment to mobilize up to 50% of the resources required for implementation of comprehensive and universal cover
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.
