The RIDE is supported by the twenty years of experience of Fondazione Mediterraneo (FM), established in Naples by Arch. Capasso, as exponent of civil society of the Mediterranean. The most important proof of the twenty years of FM is the new MAMT – Mediterranean Museum of Art, Music and Tradition. The MAMT takes place in the same building of FM, in the heart of Naples, and is a cornerstone of the collaboration between Arab League and the above mentioned association. Inside this multimedia Museum, different cultures met in an harmonious way respect of Mediterranean traditions, in a passionate research of union between the differencies. For this reason, the MAMT has been recognized “national heritage” by UNESCO, defined “emotional museum” by its director Irina Bokova, after her visit. “We transfer in MAMT a collection of emotions,  and traditions which has different origin and belonging. In this challenge we have the contribution of AMSI, COMAI, and “Uniti per Unire” , which become new members of RIDE. We hope to sign an agreement between the Ambassador of Arab League in Italy in a short time, in order to strenghten our partnership with ALECSO – Teaching, Cultural and Scientific Organization of Arab League. The MAMT becomes day by day richer thanks to different contributions stated by Prof. Michele Capasso.
