Ireland’s government has announced the creation of a new group, chaired by the Union of Students in Ireland, to examine how student wellbeing and engagement can be enhanced at the country’s higher education institutions.
GLOBAL
Why ethical internationalisation is no longer a choice
By catering mostly to rich kids from rich families in the developing world, we surely have to admit that international education in developed countries serves to reinforce the economic inequality and social stratification in students’ home societies.
NEW ZEALAND
Returning student happy with coffee and company
Hannah Mello (29) was the first Otago PhD student to return to complete their studies in New Zealand, under a Government scheme to allow up to 250 overseas PhD students to return the country.
AUSTRALASIA
Spotlight on Australia and New Zealand
ICEF Monitor featured a country spotlight on New Zealand (including the 1,000 cohort announcement and the global pathways initiative) to their e-subscriber base. Recent surveys among agents and students gave high marks – and top safety ratings – to Australia and New Zealand in the wake of the success that both countries have achieved in limiting the spread of the coronavirus.

“Congratulations on a world class conference!! It was amazing and very well executed!”
“Much better compared to other international education conferences around the world I’ve been to.”

These are just some of the comments flooding into our inboxes following the largest conference we’ve ever run – and one of the largest of its kind in New Zealand.
Not only did we manage to garner record media coverage, we debated the Aussies, tried to avoid the Kraken of Doom, became New Zealand's top trending topic on Twitter, and even had a visit by the Royal Family!
Master of ceremonies, award-winning journalist Miriama Kamo, kept conference moving with humour and poise. A range of keynote speakers inspired, debated and informed, and a record number of breakout sessions provided new insights for improving the student experience, making a mark overseas, collaborating to win – and more.
NZIEC Country of Honour host, U.S. Ambassador Scott Brown, spoke movingly of his childhood and the impact his teachers had on his life trajectory. And delegates took up the plentiful networking opportunities with gusto – many a korero was observed in the conference environs!

Ada Wang from Nanchang, China, who is studying a Master’s degree at Victoria University, told us about the case she took to the Tenancy Tribunal and won. Angelique Viola talked about leaving behind a business and career in her native Philippines to study accounting at WelTec. All three are enjoying their lives and studies in New Zealand – and Kiwi food featured strongly, most especially their love for fish’n’chips.
We learned from Shanton Chang about the digital journeys of international students. And we became one of New Zealand’s top trending topics on Twitter.

Aviation New Zealand heads to Vietnam
Since 2015, New Zealand has been a popular choice for trainee pilots from Vietnam thanks to an Aviation Cooperation Agreement in place between the New Zealand Ministry of Transport and the Vietnamese Ministry of Transportation. Pre-Covid, Vietnam was the third largest source of international pilot cadets to New Zealand and between 2015 and 2022, 126 Vietnamese cadets gained their Commercial Pilots Licences in New Zealand.
New Zealand is now home to four pilot training schools that are audited and approved by the CAAV and Vietnamese airlines. Since the New Zealand border reopened over a year ago, the training schools are once again warmly welcoming back international students from across the globe.
Simon Wallace, Aviation New Zealand Chief Executive, said that the visit by this delegation of New Zealand’s pilot training schools to Vietnam was incredibly important in putting New Zealand back on the radar of Vietnamese students looking to start their professional career as pilots.
Aviation New Zealand Chief Executive, Simon Wallace
“The delegation is showing Vietnam’s pilots of the future, along with Vietnam’s airline industry, why New Zealand continues to be a top training ground for the world’s pilots. With airlines such as Vietnam Airlines, VietJet, Bamboo Airlines and Pacific Airlines all wanting Vietnamese pilots to fly for them, we want to demonstrate why they should train in our schools to help meet this high demand.
“We will also be leveraging this visit to organise an event with representatives from the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV) following the update of the Aviation Cooperation Agreement that was signed by the former New Zealand Prime Minister, the Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern, during her official visit to Vietnam last November,” said Mr Wallace.
ENZ’s Regional Director, Asia (excluding China), Ben Burrowes added that ENZ was delighted to be supporting Aviation NZ on this visit and the series of events planned from 20 to 24 November would provide a real opportunity to engage, in a coordinated way, with the Government, the aviation regulator and the airlines in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. It also reflects an integrated approach by the New Zealand Government, peak industry body and pilot trainers.
“Engaging with the alumni from New Zealand reflects the critically important role they play in influencing new students to come to New Zealand for training. These alumni now fly for Vietnam’s biggest airlines.
“Not only does New Zealand offer world-class pilot training that meets all the necessary Vietnamese regulatory approvals, but students can enjoy an excellent lifestyle and student experience in any of the four locations around New Zealand in which our training schools are based. I am positive that the alumni will be able to attest to that,” added Mr Burrowes.

The government of South Korea has launched new immigration initiatives, including longer post-study work periods for international students, expanded opportunities for permanent residency, a new youth mobility visa, and a new visa stream for graduates from the world’s top-ranking universities.
United Kingdom
Opportunity, growth, and partnership: a blueprint for change from the UK’s universities calls for a rethinking of funding and strategies for the UK tertiary sector. The report recommends the establishment of a coordinated global strategy for UK universities, and the creation of a “Compact” between universities and government to ensure sustainable and stable levels of international student recruitment
United Kingdom and Australia
Overall satisfaction grew for the first time in two years – largely driven by significant improvement at UK and Australian institutions, according to results from Edified’s most recent annual student enquiry experience tracker. The shoppers ranked Australian and New Zealand universities as the best for sending the “most relevant and persuasive responses”, sharing content that interested them half of the time compared to one in every six communications from European universities.
United States
International students in the US will no longer be able to study abroad for longer than five months as part of what stakeholders believe could be an "unintended consequence" of a new policy change.

Asia
While financially strained institutions in the U.S and UK reassess their models, Asia’s universities are reshaping global higher education, leveraging innovation and collaboration to address economic challenges.

Australia
The Department of Education in Australia has released six new guides and an overall framework to support innovative practice in international student engagement, covering areas such as mental wellbeing, community engagement, developing innovative programmes and supporting with accommodation.

ENZ has awarded five students US$2000 travel stipends: Cooper Frantz Geddes, Raquel Goutierez, Emma Hardy, William Pahutski and Phoebe Stark.
A further nine students received US$500 from New Zealand universities towards their study costs.

To apply, students had to submit an essay explaining why they wanted to study in New Zealand and serve as ‘Kiwi ambassadors’ on social media.
ENZ’s Director of Education, North America, Amy Rutherford said this support is part of ENZ’s commitment to helping US students experience New Zealand universities.
"These programmes open up new opportunities for US students seeking to study in New Zealand.”
Launched in 2014 by the Institute of International Education, GSA is an initiative to double the number of American students who study abroad by the end of the decade.
ENZ has provided more than 24 scholarships to US students since the programme’s inception, selecting recipients on the basis of academic excellence, leadership skills and ambassadorial qualities.
In addition to the GSA Awards, ENZ and the US Department of State recently announced a new $100,000 partnership in support of the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program, which enables students of limited financial means to study or intern abroad.

Asia
China urged to “go global” as NAFSA cohort returns
Chinese higher education institutions are encouraged to increase their global presence, as a significant number of Chinese universities attended the NAFSA conference in 2023. Despite geopolitical tensions, some American and European universities remain open to collaboration with Chinese institutions. Chinese HEIs are urged to diversify their portfolio and actively engage in international exchanges and cooperation.
North America
U.S. denied more than a third of student visa applications in FY2022
The USA denied 35% of student visa applications in 2022, resulting in an estimated $26.4 billion economic loss. Factors contributing to the increase include high demand, lack of non-immigrant intent, and a shift in source markets, with India surpassing China as the top source country.

Brazil: Affordability will be key to unleashing demand for study abroad
The Brazilian economy is recovering, and there is a strong demand for study abroad among Brazilians. However, students and their families are facing financial challenges, making affordability a key factor in attracting Brazilian students. Scholarships, agent support, and work opportunities will be crucial in attracting Brazilian students in the coming years.
Europe
UK: operational shift in diversify drive mapped
90% of UK universities are diversifying international student recruitment, with changes in application processes, multiple rounds of applications, and the introduction of scholarships to adapt to the global market. Pre-CAS interviews, deposit requirements, and agent quality frameworks are proposed to maintain high recruitment standards and mitigate risks.Africa
