  • Māori and indigenous American academics join forces

    Over 150 experts have been exchanging ideas at a series of virtual sessions over the last month, hosted by Education New Zealand, Māori university scholarship body Te Kāhui Amokura and the National Science Foundation in the United States.

    The MULTIPLIER Planning and Virtual Information Exchange Sessions covered indigenous language research, indigenous data sovereignty, and climate change and its impacts on indigenous communities. Participants included Native American, Alaskan Native, Native Hawaiian and Māori scholars.

    ENZ’s Director of Engagement for North America, DuBois Jennings, says it was a privilege to co-host the meeting of so many powerful academic figures on such important questions.

    “We’re incredibly excited to explore ways in which we can support research on these critical issues and foster collaboration between the indigenous communities and nations who participated,” Mr Jennings says.

    “Following these events, we hope to build relationships among researchers in our two countries while exploring a bilateral government-to-government agreement to support this crucial research.”

    The National Science Foundation’s Keith Chanon, a Program Director in the Office of International Science and Engineering, says they are excited by the amount of interest from the two indigenous research communities in working together.

    “There is clearly much to be learned from the experience and traditional knowledge that resides in both countries,” he says.

    The National Science Foundation supports basic research and education in all scientific and engineering disciplines, and 25 percent of all federally-funded academic fundamental research at US colleges and universities. The planning and exchange sessions were held under the Foundation’s MULTIPLIER programme, which draws international expertise into its research missions.  

    Te Kāhui Amokura – part of Universities New Zealand Te Pōkai Tara – promotes outcomes for Māori university students and staff and Māori scholarship.

  • Advertising opportunity for NZ education providers and regional groups in Japan

    The publication is the only one of its kind supported by the New Zealand Embassy in Tokyo and Education New Zealand. KBUNSHA distributes 20,000 copies to Japanese schools, universities and education organisations as well as education fairs and seminars.    

    ENZ’s Business Development Manager – Japan, Tomomi Kontani says “New Zealand’s border is now fully open to students from Japan, and interests from students and their parents, schools, and education agents are shifting back from other options.  

    “This is a great opportunity for New Zealand education providers and regional groups to join forces with us to promote New Zealand education to the Japanese public. ENZ Japan is planning to host and participate in various students/business-to-business stakeholder focus events in 2023, and this guidebook will be the main information source we refer to and distribute at these events. Destination marketing plays a key role in student attraction for a market like Japan with a tourism focus and we hope regions can also participate in this special opportunity to introduce their regions and activities.”    

    Advertisement rates for individual providers range from $NZ2,400 to $NZ6,600 for guidebook and/or website listing. Individual providers can download the proposal here. Advertising copy can be provided in English.
