Yeah! 

I was also very excited to see that we have all the criteria but there's a big exception for Iran, Iraq, Syria,... Seems to be perfect for Bangladesh though. 

"Research country exceptions

In principle, IDRC supports research in all developing countries. At this time, however, we do not offer awards for research that involves the following countries:

Burundi, Central African Republic, Chad, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Mali, North Korea (Democratic People’s Republic of), Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, Yemen, southern and eastern Europe, Central Asia, and South Caucasus."


All the best,
Yasaman
