Jan Visser’s Expertise Dr. Jan Visser is an eclectic craftsman and scientist. His major academic and experiential backgrounds are in physics and in instructional systems design. As a physicist he worked in both Europe and Israel, combining research with teaching. Struck by the intricacies of human learning, and fascinated with the human condition and how it can be changed through human and social development, he moved on to work as an educator in an international development context. He has worked throughout the world, particularly in Africa, and has an established record of achievements in generating innovative practice and new ways of thinking about learning. He also worked as a documentary filmmaker, writes prolifically in a variety of fields, is keynoter at international conferences, has been the architect of various significant international development projects and has broad managerial experience, including in the area of organizational change and organizational learning. One of his specializations and research interests is in the area of the human motivation to learn. He is also a musician (who builds his own instruments) and an avid walker. After having successfully created the Learning Without Frontiers programme (http://www.unesco.org/education/lwf/) in UNESCO, he established and subsequently continues to dedicate himself to developing the Learning Development Institute (LDI), a networked learning community devoted to excellence in the transdisciplinary research of learning and the development of its conditions (http://www.learndev.org). Specialties: Research, advisement, program and project evaluation, participation in think tanks, needs assessment, policy development, publishing.
