Abstract
Research is a deliberate and systematic inquiry or investigation to establish a fact. Research could focus on any desired discipline like science, education, economy, administration, etc. Resources (e.g. humans, funds, equipment etc) are essential in any research, especially impactful research. Research forms an essential part of development for interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary application of new technologies and procedures. Progress and comfort of human beings are due to success in research outcomes in the society. In the modern world, every sector, like medical, engineering, and basic sciences improves daily and has achieved new horizons because of support from research funding. For comprehensive research and its utility for better progress and output, proper funding is required. This article highlights various research funding opportunities, sources, agencies, and their significance. The fundamental objective is to create awareness through the global involvement of a collaborative team of experts across the world to foster interdisciplinary research collaboration and joint funding applications for economic development. The authors in this paper are open to joint research and collaboration.
