You would be part of an international team including web designers, content managers and our database supervisor. Your task would consists in writing PHP code which fetched data from a MySQL database and displays on a website. Initially you would be working on two projects: (1) "Explore with Museum With No Frontiers", a Virtual Tour platform enabling people to explore monuments and archaeological sites in different countries and (2) "Discover Glass Art" our newest online museum focusing on artifacts made by glass contributed by our partner museums from all over the world, to a joint database.

Our database and website were designed and set up between 2004 and 2007, within the context of a specific project. Since then they are developed further according to the specific requirement of each new project.

As a first step, if you are interested, we could have a Skype call to tell you more about our work and the proposed opportunity. In the meantime I invite you to visit our website www.museumwnf.org and to read our profile published on Volunteer Match.

We look forward to hearing from you and to welcoming you to our team!

Mission Statement

Museum With No Frontiers (MWNF) builds bridges through knowledge and understanding. MWNF has 20 years of experience in "rewriting history" beyond narrow nationalist agendas and promoting a new, inclusive vision of history that highlights exchanges and cooperation between cultures in areas as diverse as archaeology, art and culture, economy and social life. Against the backdrop of contemporary global challenges and conflicts, MWNF projects demonstrate the far-reaching potential of cultural heritage in building intercultural bridges in the name of peace.

Description

Museum With No Frontiers (MWNF) was founded in 1994. Since the beginning, the idea was to overcome any kind of conventional 'border' and to create an exhibition space where well-known and unknown, small and large, secure and insecure, rich and poor could not only coexist but would complement each other, generating mutual benefit for all concerned.

The MWNF program is built around two main activities: the MWNF Virtual Museum including different thematic sections and the MWNF travel guides, focusing on little known aspects of cultural heritage.

MWNF is an independent non-profit organization, relying mainly on volunteer resources. The legal seat is established in Vienna, Austria.

The network set up by MWNF includes public and private Partners from all around the world.
