Each year IGI Global receives a significant number of requests from researchers coming from Low Income Countries.
Regrettably it is impossible for a publishing house the size of IGI Global to accommodate all these requests. Furthermore, it is extremely important for all
researchers from these regions to make every attempt to secure funding from numerous funding agencies around the world.
These funding agencies are equipped with the necessary funds which they allocate each year to support researchers from developing nations.
Your chance of receiving funding from these funding agencies is much higher as IGI Global can only support a handful of requests each year vs.
funding agencies, which can support unlimited requests/applications! Once you have exhausted all your efforts in support of securing the necessary funds
from funding agencies then you can complete this application and submit it to IGI Global for their consideration.
IGI Global uses a steering committee to review all applications and make its recommendation in terms of funding.
Please keep in mind that there is no guarantee that your request will be approved.
This application must be supported with all necessary documents for the steering committee to make an informed decision.
IGI Global's steering committee will not be able to review your application without the presentation of all necessary documents.
