National Maritime Foundation (NMF)

Located in India’s capital, New Delhi,the National Maritime Foundation is amongst India’s foremost think-tanks. It is the only think-tank in India that concentrates solely upon India’s maritime domain. However, the focus of its research is holistic and comprehensive and is not restricted to ‘military maritime security’ (hard security) alone. Instead, the research-faculty examines and analyses the entire gamut of issues relevant to India’s holistic maritime security, seeking to provide India with freedom from manmade- and natural threats, as well as those that result from a combination of these — any or all of which could arise in-, from-, or through- the sea.
