Facebook insights on international students
With the rise of Facebook Messenger picked as a social media trend for 2017, ENZ’s social communities team have been analysing students’ messages to the Study in New Zealand Facebook page they’ve received since November.
The team identified trends and summarised the most common enquiries about New Zealand education levels, course info as well as the top countries that these student enquiries came from.
Olivia Silverwood, ENZ’s International Social Communities Manager says the results were often surprising, but positive.
“It’s interesting that some of the top countries we’ve received enquiries from aren’t markets where we’ve done any proactive marketing – it’s encouraging to see New Zealand is appearing on students’ radars organically.”
The Facebook enquiries also indicated that most students are interested in STEM subjects, and postgraduate education. The most common questions focused on course info, costs, scholarships, how to apply – as well as info about visas.
“New Zealand is continuing to draw high-value students, and the benefits New Zealand offers international postgraduate students are being noticed,” said Olivia.
“The kinds of questions people ask us are about the practical side of study abroad, suggesting that these students aren’t just dreaming about coming to New Zealand, but are already planning and budgeting and taking the first steps.”

New Zealand top of the world in university sustainability stewardship
New Zealand universities have come out on top of the world for sustainability stewardship in the Times Higher Education Impact Rankings 2024.
New Zealand universities’ approach to sustainability and equality has been announced as world-leading by Times Higher Education (THE) in its most recent Impact Rankings (2024). The stewardship rankings saw New Zealand score an average of 85.3 to come out ahead of Australia (84.4) and Hong Kong (81.9). All eight New Zealand universities participated in the rankings.
Now in its sixth year, the Impact Rankings is the only ranking system in the world that measures universities’ contributions to the United Nations’ Sustainability Goals (UN SDG’s). The Rankings assess the commitment made by universities to sustainability across four broad areas: research, stewardship, outreach, and teaching.
In topping the table for sustainability stewardship, New Zealand’s universities have scored well against indicators such as tracking food waste and having sustainable food choices on campus (SDG 2), the proportion of senior female academics (SDG 5), having water reuse policies and measurements (SDG 6), ensuring energy efficiency with renovations of buildings (SDG 7), and guaranteeing a living wage (SDG 8).
New Zealand universities also came second equal in the world against sustainability outreach, meaning high scores were achieved for contributing to policies addressing poverty (SDG 1), collaborating with health institutions (SDG 3), providing programmes for the local community to learn about energy efficiency (SDG 7), participating in cooperative planning for climate change disasters (SDG 13), and providing expert advice to government (SDG 16).
ENZ’s Acting Chief Executive Dr Linda Sissons welcomed the results and said the global recognition for New Zealand’s universities working hard to make a positive impact in the face of pressing environmental and social challenges world-wide was significant.
“New Zealand’s education system is guided by Kaitiakitanga (the Māori concept of guardianship). This principle instils a deep sense of connection to our land and a commitment to ensuring its health and vitality for future generations.
"Kaitiakitanga informs the approach taken by our universities to resource management, conservation, and sustainable development that all contribute to the UN’s SDGs particularly in the areas of food security, bioenergy, sustainable urban development, and climate change,” said Dr Sissons.
Dr Sissons added “It is incredibly positive to have our approach to sustainability stewardship and outreach recognised as world leading. This is particularly important to us as we know that students around the globe are increasingly prioritising environmental and social responsibility and choosing to study at institutions that align with their personal values.”
In this year's Impact Rankings, a record 2,152 universities from 125 countries/regions were assessed. Progress is measured for each of the individual 17 SDGs, and across the goals as a whole. View the full Impact Rankings 2024 results here.

Thank you to NZIEC KI TUA Partners
The conference was attended by 599 delegates and saw 42 sessions delivered over two days by 85 speakers, including expert panellists.
Thanks again to our NZIEC KI TUA 2023 Partners; our Country of Honour: People’s Republic of China, CSCSE, Streamliner, Student Safe, Flywire, idpconnect, IELTS, Southern Cross Travel Insurance, Kiwiflora Nurseries, Yoobee College of Creative Innovation, Orbit Protect, Host Families, Christchurch Foundation and the Tui Corridor Project, University of Canterbury, University of Canterbury International College, Lincoln University and The University of Auckland.
Being the first in-person conference since 2019, connection was more important than ever and our NZIEC KI TUA 2023 exhibition hall was renamed The Experience Garden where delegates could do just that – engage, connect, and experience.
Delegates who visited the team at the Country of Honour’s Chinese Service Center for Scholarly Exchange (CSCSE) table, were able to have their name written in Chinese calligraphy and learn more about studying in China.
Locally made ice cream was provided by Southern Cross Travel Insurance, barista-made coffee from Student Safe and a special tea café was brought to delegates by idpconnect and IELTS.
Delegates also had the opportunity to experience a virtual reality journey with Yoobee College of Creative Innovation.
Thanks to the Kiwiflora Nurseries massage relaxation corner, delegates also got a chance to rest with a neck and shoulder massage and relax in their cosy and tranquil waiting area. Kiwiflora Nurseries partnered with NZIEC KI TUA and the Christchurch Foundation and the Tui Corridor Project to help us in our commitment to sustainability; for every delegate registration, a native tree was planted, fostering a greener future for generations to come.
The Host Families photography headshots activation was a hit with over 80 photos taken by the photographer.
The Orbit Protect Better Health Quiz provided delegates with a little downtime and a fun competition as they went head-to-head in earning points for prizes.
And last but not least, much appreciation goes to our partner Flywire as the Education New Zealand Manapou ki ta Ao Tamaki Makaurau Auckland office now has a new piece of artwork based on the theme of ‘How collaboration will shape the future of global education’ for their wall.
Thanks to all our 2023 partners in making this year’s conference a great one!
Check out the photo highlights reel from NZIEC KI TUA here.
We look forward to having you join us at Tākina in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington on 6-8 August 2024.

New Zealand tops English-speaking countries in Educating for the Future ranking again
New Zealand retained its ranking from 2018, with an overall score of 79.9, close behind Sweden (84.3) and Finland (84.8), which topped the rankings.
New Zealand achieved a top score in the index’s socio-economic environment category, which measures how education systems expose their students to global values such as gender equality, civic freedom, and diversity and tolerance.
The index’s socio-economic environment category compares freedom of religion and the press, gender equality, attitudes toward immigrants, and protecting the environment.
“High-income economies have the most open societies and are therefore conducive to learning future-oriented skills,” the EIU 2019 report said.
New Zealand also ranked among the top five countries in the education policy environment category, which tracked economies focusing on critical thinking, digital skills and soft skills as part of the secondary school curriculum.
“It’s a fantastic result for New Zealand to have retained our top global ranking in the English-speaking world as well as the Asia-Pacific region,” ENZ Chief Executive Grant McPherson said.
“It’s great to see New Zealand do so well in the index’s socio-economic environment category that measures exposure to global values such as diversity and tolerance.
“Future skills are vital to advancing these global values.”
The index assesses the effectiveness of education systems in preparing students for the demands of work and life in a rapidly changing landscape.
It focuses on young people aged 15-24 in 50 economies, and measures three pillars of education systems – policy approaches, teaching conditions and broader gauges of societal freedom and openness – as a means of readying young people to meet the challenges of work and society in future.
