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.

ACTIVITY HAS BEEN CHANGED IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS:
Although Rwanda is free of large scale violence that erupted during the 1994 genocide, rape and
‘defilement' are prevalent in Rwanda today. Few victims of sexual crimes go to health care facilities for care,
and when they do, it is generally too late to administer Post Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) and certify the
evidence of the crime. There are several types of services required for treating the victim, and potentially
prosecuting the perpetrator of the sexual crime. Currently, these activities are often not happening or are
not linked, including timely PEP, police response and reporting, psychosocial counseling and support, legal
assistance, and access to the judicial system. This activity will build on PEPFAR supported activities that
target sexual gender-based violence (SGBV). More specifically, Rwanda is one of three countries
participating in the OGAC Gender Technical Working Group SGBV program that seeks to increase access
to PEP.
This initiative will also establish and strengthen connections between health, law enforcement, legal, and
community services for delivery of a coordinated response to sexual violence survivors, as well as
maintaining the emphasis on provision of PEP. The initiative will attempt to strengthen the capacity of local
partners and institutions to deliver quality health care services to survivors of sexual violence.
Activities in FY 2009 will include the scale up of services to new geographic areas, building upon tools,
methods and lessons learned under the SGBV Initiative and FY 2007 and 08 wraparound activities. The
activity will have the following components:
(1) providing decentralized health services for victims of SGBV(including PEP) from the district hospital to
the health center level; exploring the feasibility of provision of ART, PEP, and forensic/rape certification by
nurses;
(2) working within existing administrative structures at the district and sector levels with the police, local
government officials, judicial system, and local NGOs and Civil Society Organizations to provide training on
GBV to all of these groups;
(3) strengthening the linkages/partnership between the police, community and health care providers and
other service providers (such as providers of legal assistance), particularly as they relate to HIV/AIDS and
GBV services and specifically to sensitize the police regarding the need to appropriately administer PEP;
(4) providing training (and TOT) for targeted police personnel to deliver community sensitization and
awareness-raising on gender sensitivity, victims rights, and GBV issues; and
(5) foster South-South exchange of programmatic experience, protocols, and tools through linkages with a
network of partners implementing similar service delivery models in Zambia, Kenya, and South Africa and
smaller sexual violence projects in Zimbabwe, Malawi, and Ethiopia.
