A unique and unrepeatable experience through 20 emotional paths: among them the Mosque, the Chapel with the relics of Don Bosco, Mother Mazzarello and Padre Pio, the spaces dedicated to Pino Daniele and the sculptor Mario Molinari, the path dedicated to "La Campania of emotions"...
On June 29, 2018, in Naples, the MUSEUM OF PEACE - MAMT (Mediterranean, Art, Architecture, Archeology, Environment, Music, Migrations, Traditions, Tourism), celebrates the second year of activity: ten thousand visitors from 140 countries of the world fascinated from a space created by the MEDITERRANEAN FOUNDATION, for almost 30 years committed to dialogue and peace in the Mediterranean and the world.
The Museum - located in the historic building of the former "Grand Hotel de Londres" in Piazza Municipio, in the heart of Naples, a few steps from the metro station designed by Alvaro Siza and the cruise port - is a "home" to welcome and excite: in the 5 floors we are told what has united and unites the peoples of the Mediterranean and the World: Music, Science, Art, Creativity, Craftsmanship, Solidarity, Traditions, Costumes, Food, Destiny…
Here you can immerse yourself in the 20 emotional journeys dedicated to important topics such as Migration, Interreligious Dialogue, Music, Stories of Peace, Legality and then the World Salesian Oratory, Ancient Egypt, the Cribs, the City of dialogue: all guided by over 5.000 high-definition videos (4k) and objects, artifacts and testimonies unique in the world that have helped define the Museum "emotional heritage of humanity" and give it the title of "Museum of Emotions".
Through a unique system in the world, located on the 5 floors of the building, and with the help of 107 large videowalls you can immerse yourself in thousands of videos with music by Pino Daniele: the "PINO DANIELE" section is dedicated to the great "musician ALIVE".
The success of this initiative is testified not only by the numbers but by the testimonies of most of the visitors, excited and involved in a welcoming home that the greatest communicators of the world have called "Chaos and wonder".
The project of the Peace Museum was founded in 1997, when President Michele Capasso appealed to over 2,000 representatives from 36 countries on the need to give peace a space where to tell a different story from what is proposed daily by the media (terrorism, migrants) that they die, corruption, poverty, wars, etc.): in short, the HISTORY OF BEAUTY, TRUE AND GOOD to give back hope to young people and make them once again POSITIVE HUNTERS and FUTURE MANUFACTURERS.

The Museum of Peace - MAMT has opened its doors for the WORLD REFUGEE DAY through the emotional paths "VOCI DEI MIGRANTI".
On 20 June each year the World Refugee Day is celebrated all over the world, an annual event organized by the UN General Assembly, which aims to raise awareness among the public about the condition of millions of refugees and asylum seekers who, forced to flee from wars and violence, leave their loved ones, their homes and all that once was part of their lives. And above all, invite you to never forget that behind each of them there is a story that deserves to be heard. Stories of suffering, of humiliations but also of those who managed to rebuild their own future, bringing their own contribution to the society that welcomed it.
To pursue this goal, the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) continues the #WithRefugees campaign, which aims to give visibility to expressions of solidarity towards refugees, amplifying the voice of those who welcome and strengthening the meeting between local communities and refugees and asylum seekers.
#WithRefugees is also a petition, with which UNHCR asks governments to ensure that every refugee child has an education, that every refugee family has a safe place to live, that every refugee can work or acquire new skills to give his contribution to the community. The true petition presented to the UN Assembly by the end of 2018 on the occasion of the adoption of the Global Compact for refugees.
The petition, the stories of refugees and refugees, the solidarity testimonies of representatives of the world of culture, sport and entertainment, and the list and information on the main initiatives planned throughout the country are available on the website of the campaign www.unhcr.it/withrefugees.
Among the events of celebration of World Refugee Day, which will culminate on Wednesday 20 June, but will continue until the end of the month, the meetings and emotional trails of the Museum of Peace - MAMT that have attracted hundreds of visitors and sensitized young people on this topic that "will affect our future if not solved with the values of humanity, acceptance and coexistence. Today, being on the side of refugees is not only an act of humanity, it is above all also an act of courage", said President Michele Capasso.
