Every time you board a flight in India, your safety depends on systems that are rarely questioned independently. We are the only ones doing it — and we do it for free.
Safety Matters Foundation is India’s only independent aviation safety think tank. Since 2018, we have produced evidence-based work on human factors, accident investigation, safety culture, and regulatory oversight — entirely without advertising revenue, sponsorship, or institutional funding.
What Your Contribution Supports
On a capital base of just ₹1 lakh, we have produced work with an estimated replacement value of ₹75 lakh–1 crore:
- 500+ articles on aviation safety, human factors, and accident analysis — free and open to all
- 3 National Safety Culture Surveys (2020, 2022, 2024) — the only non-governmental aviation safety surveys in India, with 530 respondents in 2024
- 128 YouTube videos and 46+ podcast episodes on mindFly Katha
- Peer-reviewed research published in The Aeronautical Journal (Cambridge University Press)
- Anonymous Safety Reporting Portal — the only non-governmental mechanism of its kind in India
- International presentations at ISASI, Flight Safety Foundation, EATS Berlin, and WATS Orlando
That is a 750x return on capital — every rupee invested has generated extraordinary public value.
Fund India’s 4th Safety Culture Survey (2026)
We are now preparing the 4th National Safety Culture Survey, expanding to include cabin crew, air traffic controllers, and maintenance engineers alongside pilots. Your contribution directly funds:
- Survey design, distribution, and analysis
- Website hosting and anonymous reporting portal
- Podcast production and research dissemination
- Peer-reviewed publication of findings
