Jaap Swart was born and raised in the Caribbean. This caused intense
interest in intercultural communication and the problems of communication
for development and education in multi-cultural societies. Social Geographer
and Cultural Anthropologist by training (University of Amsterdam: UVA) Jaap
worked for the UVA and ISS (Institute of Social Studies), returned to
Curaçao in the Caribbean, joined the management of a secondary school and
became active in the teacher union movement. Returning to The Netherlands he
became General Manager of Radio Nederland Training Centre(RNTC), the Dutch
institute for media-facilitated development, educational and intercultural
communication. RNTC was and is active in development communication projects
all over the world. Retired from RNTC in 2002 Jaap devotes most of his time
to the application and critical assessment of media for journalistic,
developmental and educational objectives (MOS. Media on the Spot) and to the
role of media in mental health and cultural confrontation situations (MVI.
Mind Venture International).
