1001 Inventions is a global educational initiative that promotes awareness of a thousand years of scientific and cultural achievements from Muslim civilisation from the 7th century onwards, and how those contributions helped build the foundations of our modern world.
The 1001 Inventions global touring exhibition and the educational products that accompany the exhibition all highlight the scientific and technological achievements made by men and women, of different faiths and cultures that lived in Muslim civilisation.
The 1001 Inventions exhibition completed its record-breaking residency at London’s Science Museum on the 30th June 2010, during which time it attracted 400,000 visitors.
Following its record breaking performance at the Science Museum in London, the 1001 Inventions Exhibition opened in the iconic and historic Sultan Ahmed Square in Istanbul from 18th August till 5th October 2010. The exhibition is now open in the New York Hall of Science, USA.
