ORGANIZATION: Museum With No Frontiers (MWNF)

The MWNF Team
The MWNF Team after a meeting with the partners of the "Sharing History" project, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates

Museum With No Frontiers has set up the first and so far, only multi-national online museum with the specific purpose of using better knowledge of art and cultural heritage to facilitate mutual understanding between cultures. Since 2011 our team is composed by volunteers only. Thanks to the help and cooperation of highly competent and enthusiastic people from all around the world, we are able to add a lot of new contents every year and create new opportunities to explore the material contributed by our Partners. For further details please refer to our homepage: www.museumwnf.org

Today we are looking for help for the development of three Application Program Interfaces (API) for the following three sections of our website:
ABOUT http://www.museumwnf.org/atrium_about.php
BOOKS http://books.museumwnf.net/
TRAVEL http://travels.museumwnf.net/tour.php?flag=theme&id=0
The volunteer can count on advise of the person who between 2004 and 2007 has set up the MWNF database and who, since then, ensures database and server administration. In addition, the volunteer would have to collaborate with the designer and front-end developer who will work at a new version of ABOUT, BOOKS and TRAVEL.

Kindly note that SENIOR knowledge of PHP 7, Laravel framework and MySQL are mandatory for this opportunity.

Regarding timing we are flexible and can adapt to the volunteers’ possibilities. Ideally we would like to complete the ABOUT api in September and the other two between October and the end of the year.

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.
