The Peninsula Foundation operates independently, free from political pressure, corporate influence and ideological capture. Membership is for individuals and institutions who want to stand closer to that independence, not just observe it from a distance.
Members help sustain a forum where evidence, ethics and civilisational responsibility shape conversations on governance, security, technology, justice and India's role in the world. Paid memberships run for one year and renew only when you choose to make a fresh payment.
