The international non-profit organisation Museum With No Frontiers (MWNF) was founded in 1995 on the initiative of Eva Schubert in coincidence with the launch of a formal partnership between the European Union and its Mediterranean neighbours, which recently led to the constitution of the Union for the Mediterranean. The objective of MWNF is to promote cooperation in the fields of cultural heritage, tourism and education. MWNF develops innovative exhibition formats that do not require moving the works of art but artefacts in museums, monuments and archaeological sites are presented in situ (Exhibition Trails) or in a virtual environment (the MWNF Virtual Museum). Within the programme coordinated by MWNF each country presents its history, art and culture from the local perspective. Over 500 partners from 21 countries participate in different projects. HRH Princess Sumayyah of Jordan is one of the members of the recently constituted MWNF Honorary Committee. MWNF was founded in Vienna (Austria), moved its operational office to Madrid (Spain) in 1998 and is currently based in Brussels (Belgium).
