The Many Worlds interpretation is the idea that the wavefunction never, ever collapses. It just evolves unitarily according to the Schrodinger equation forever.

Absence of collapse is not endemic to many worlds interpretation. Statistical interpretation does not talk about collapse either. A better characterization of many worlds is that the Schroedinger equation is put above anything else, even above the experiment and existence of definite measurement results.
