Purpose: before you go anywhere or do anything, at home, on the street, at the beach or abroad, see what has actually happened there, what is happening now, and what keeps you and your family safe. Every fact has a date and a source.
We never name victims. We never call a place "safe"; we say what is known. When we get something wrong, we correct it openly.
Making Human Safe gathers public information (official alerts and statistics, news reports and reports from visitors) and shows it with its source and the date it was last checked. It may be incomplete, out of date or wrong, and conditions can change in minutes. The absence of incidents or alerts does not mean a place or activity is safe. Always follow official warnings, lifeguards, flags and local authorities. This site does not give medical, legal or emergency advice. Reports from visitors are labelled as reports until confirmed. We are not an emergency service: in danger, call your local emergency number.
We do not use tracking cookies or advertising trackers. MakeUsSafe (coming soon) will work inside your browser, so we will not see your family details. We will store contact details only if you ask for alerts, and you will be able to delete them anytime.
Each source keeps its own licence and is credited on the pages that use it. Examples: Wikivoyage (CC BY-SA 4.0), Overture Maps and OpenStreetMap (map data), NDMA SACHET (India's official disaster alerts), and news publishers (short quotes with links).
