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.
USAID/Uganda's health, HIV/AIDS and Education funds are programmed to achieve USAID/Uganda's Strategic Objective 8 (SO8), Improved Human Capacity. USAID is one of the largest bilateral donors for HIV/AIDS, reproductive health and primary education in Uganda with an FY06 budget of $ 110 million. USAID is responsible for management of a large portion of the U.S. Government's HIV/AIDS program funded under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. In FY 2006, USAID programmed almost $81 million under the Emergency Plan. Also in FY 2006, an additional TCN Malaria Advisor and FSN HIV/AIDS Advisor joined the team making SO8 a 22-person team.
The USAID team brings to the Emergency Plan program refined skills in strategic leadership for HIV and development programs; leadership in HIV/AIDS and health policy development; technical leadership in clinical and non-clinical service provision for HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment in developing countries; and technical expertise in behavior change communication, monitoring and evaluation, private sector development and health financing. USAID staff has combined over 200 years of experience as development professionals and technical expertise in HIV/AIDS and health programs.
Currently, USAID staff working 100% on PEPFAR include three USDH HIV/AIDS advisors, four professional Foreign Service Nationals, and three U.S. PSCs, including an HIV/AIDS clinical care specialist and the PEPFAR USG Country Team Coordinator. The USG Country Team Coordinator arrived in Uganda in February 2006 and works closely will all USG agencies to maximize complementarities throughout the PEPFAR/Uganda program planning, implementation and monitoring and evaluation continuum. This position is directly supervised by The Deputy Chief of Mission. Other critical USAID staff providing technical leadership and management to the program but not devoting full time to PEPFAR include three USDH, three U.S. PSC, three FSN project management specialists, two FSN financial management specialist and two FSN administrative/support staff. These core staff are responsible for managing over 40 different prime activities with 27 of these receiving PEPFAR funding to expand and strengthen programs in abstinence, faithfulness, condom use, PMTCT, injection safety, palliative care, TB/HIV integration efforts, ART, orphans and vulnerable children, national logistics and laboratory systems, comprehensive HIV/AIDS district programs, HIV/AIDS program in areas of conflict, donor coordination and strategic information. USAID is complemented by professional staff from other teams at the USAID Mission with skills in democracy and governance, peace and reconciliation, economic growth, agricultural development, food aid, contracting and financial management.
The funding required for USAID/PEPFAR management in FY07 has increased to keep up with the technical and managerial requirements of its increased budget. In FY07, USAID plans to add two full-time FSN program managers and 2 full-time fellows to its team. One of these new full-time FSN positions will concentrate his/her time managing new and/or expanded programs in care and treatment while the other will assist in managing expanded programs in prevention implemented through bilateral, Track 1 and the New Partner Initiative (NPI). The two fellows will be recruited to sit within two of the largest USAID-supported indigenous care and treatment programs to ensure quality programming and reporting, adherence to PEPFAR priorities/requirements and to maintain strong links with the USAID SO8 team. In addition to these new full-time positions, another program manager position will be jointly funded by PEPFAR (50%), the Presidents Malaria Initiative (PMI) and the education sector initiative to provide intensive on-the-ground supervision to monitor the quality and effectiveness of USAID's HIV/AIDS, education and malaria programming in Northern Uganda's conflict affected areas. A logistics management specialist will also be jointly funded by PEFPAR (80%) and the Child Survival and Population (20%) initiatives.
USAID's FY07 complement of staff represents the technical and managerial skills and competencies required to effectively implement USAID PEPFAR programming. USAID will continue to leverage non-PEPFAR moneys to support staff positions that span the HIV/AIDS, Malaria and Conflict programs.
Out of a total management and staffing budget of $4,809,097, $4,084,584 will be used for personnel, office rent etc; $292,925 will be used for PEPFAR ICASS costs; $258,596 will be used for capital security sharing and $172,992 will be used for IRM tax. A table outlining this budget breakdown has been uploaded into the support documents of this COP.
