 Museum With No Frontiers
"By raising awareness of artistic and cultural heritage and promoting investment in restoration and conservation projects, MWNF aims to promote cultural integration as a means of facilitating political cooperation between different countries and cultures. The MWNF programme provides an opportunity to learn about and enjoy the shared cultural heritage of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East in a completely new way. Its masterly orchestration brings together a large number of academics, professionals, photographers, tourist managers, politicians and many other people and organisations participating in this innovative project."
MWNF and the Arab League began a partnership in 2010 and have participated in events together including the World Expo 2010 in Shanghai. For more about that event, see the Media Gallery. The MWNF allows people from all over the world to view 1235 artifacts of Islamic art from 40 museums and 14 different countries through their virtual museum. Their innovative program brings Islamic art and culture to a much wider audience and allows the site's visitors to see Arab culture up close without having to travel thousands of miles.
