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.

The EngenderHealth CHAMPION project's goal is to promote a national dialogue about men's roles, increase gender equitable beliefs and behaviors, and, in doing so, reduce the vulnerability of men, women, and children to HIV/AIDS and other adverse reproductive health outcomes. CHAMPION has five objectives, to: 1) promote partner reduction and fidelity and reduce high-risk behavior; 2) create an enabling environment that promotes positive social norms including fidelity, non-violence, and respect for healthy relationships; 3) promote positive health-seeking behavior by men through participation in clinical health services; 4) mobilize workplace environments to advance gender equity and constructive male engagement in HIV prevention and reproductive health promotion; and 5) develop strategies for strengthening national, regional, and district laws and policies to engage men in HIV prevention and reduce the risk of both men and women. CHAMPION works to build capacity of local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) as implementing partners for the project. CHAMPION also works to ensure that its partners implement evidence-based programming, through the application of global best practices and utilization of local research results and lessons learned.
CHAMPION contributes to health systems strengthening efforts through its focus on capacity building of local NGOs and support of community action teams. CHAMPION trains organizations on use of their high-quality manuals and tools. CHAMPION's work with the private sector has also been pivotal, through integration of its Men as Partners workplace program in a wide range of industries, including gold mines and tea plantations. CHAMPION has further focused on solidifying the partnership of employers, workers, and government to successfully increase their capacity to promote comprehensive HIV prevention programming at workplaces across the country.
This program contributes to the Partnership Framework goals on Prevention and Service Maintenance and Scale-Up. CHAMPION implements quality HIV prevention behavior change programs which use the internationally-recognized Men as Partners curricula, focusing on inter-personal communication and community mobilization efforts. Activities focus on raising risk perception and addressing key drivers of the epidemic, including multiple concurrent partnerships, transactional and cross-generational sex, alcohol use, couples communication, and low condom use. In addition, CHAMPION works community action teams and local NGOs to develop and implement community-focused activities as a follow-up to the curricula-based efforts. All CHAMPION work focuses on addressing harmful gender norms, promoting gender equity and addressing gender-based violence. CHAMPION will scale-up efforts to address gender-based violence (GBV), through its advocacy work and leadership and coordination of other partners to develop a holistic response to GBV. Finally, CHAMPION works closely and deliberately with other USG prevention partners to ensure that efforts are coordinated.
CHAMPION aims to become more cost-efficient over time through its close coordination with other partners and its increasing use of local partners. HIV prevention programs are more effective and efficient through focusing on those at highest risk, addressing key drivers of the epidemic, and ensuring consistent messages are used by all partners.
CHAMPION focuses its efforts in 13 districts in 10 regions. However, advocacy, workplace programming and a planned mass media campaign extend CHAMPION's reach beyond those regions. Programming primarily targets adult men who engage in high-risk behavior, but also targets women.
CHAMPION's M&E efforts aim to not only to provide good information for programmatic management and change of the project, but also to highlight nationally and internationally the lessons that are being learned by CHAMPION. Major M&E activities include baseline report development and dissemination, capacity-building for CHAMPION lead NGOs on M&E, and implementation of an ongoing technical assistance and supportive supervision plan.
Maintain/expand work to address harmful gender norms and reduce high risk behavior through working with men. This will be accomplished through use of the Men as Partners curricula for communities, promotion of positive health-seeking behavior by men, community mobilization to address harmful gender norms, and workplace programs. Additional funds will be used to expand workplace programs, and strengthen policy dialogue with GOT. National policy-level dialogue with implementation focused on 13 districts in 10 regions.
