ASEMUS
In the autumn of 2000 the National Museums of World Culture initiated the foundation of a network between museums in Asia and Western Europe.
The point of departure for the work within the Asia-Europe Museum Network- ASEMUS- is to develop different forms of common utilization of the collections of participating museums.
This has resulted in a number of projects directed towards everything from mutual travelling collections to research projects and an exchange of knowledge on preservation-issues.
ASEMUS today gathers around 60 museums and since the beginning, the National Museums of World Culture is hosting the secretariat of the network along with the administration of its website, asemus.org.
