Hej, I’m Ngoc Norah Vo.

I study how people learn, individually across the lifespan and collectively in organisations, and I design learning experiences and technology that support it.

UX researcher and learning experience designer with 9+ years of cross-cultural research experience in Vietnam and Sweden, now studying Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Siegen.

Research interests: how do we enable and motivate adult learning in different life transition (senior worker with AI adoption, retirees to older adults’ digital learning); how organisations, institutions can design and support the learning curve for knowledge transfer and successful ageing society.
