  • Annual survey shows continuing strong support for international students in New Zealand

    More than three quarters of 1,100 New Zealanders in the annual 2024 survey conducted by Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) believe the country should host the same or more international students in New Zealand.

    This was the key finding of research, completed in October, to measure New Zealanders’ views on the contribution and challenges of international students studying in New Zealand.

    For the first time this year, the annual survey asked respondents if they wanted to see more or fewer international students in the country. Forty-one (41) percent of those surveyed said they would like to see more, with another 36 percent supporting the same number of students. Only 11 percent indicated they would like to see fewer international students arrive. 

    Positive perceptions of international students also continued to track strongly with 72 percent saying the students benefit New Zealand. This followed similar levels of support of 75 percent in 2023 and 73 percent in 2022.

    Commenting on the findings, ENZ’s Chief Executive, Amanda Malu, said the results reinforced the growing support and understanding of the contribution of international students to local communities and the country.

    “Since 2018 we have seen increasing support for the contribution international students make in key areas,” said Ms Malu.

    “Today 82 percent of New Zealanders agree that international students contribute to our cultural diversity, with 79 percent feeling they help local students learn about other cultures and ways of life, as well as contributing to local businesses during their studies.”

    “This level of support is enormously pleasing. It tells us we can continue to steadily grow the number of international students in New Zealand and that they will continue to receive a warm welcome in our communities.”

  • A message to our students and their families

    Our focus at this time is on supporting the families and communities affected by the attack and making sure people feel safe and secure – public safety is the top priority for the New Zealand Police and the New Zealand Government. 

    People everywhere in New Zealand are coming together to ensure that New Zealand remains an inclusive, caring country.

    The attack is an assault on the values of New Zealanders – values of international friendship, tolerance and kindness. International education has a powerful role to play in this, and we value the diversity and perspectives all our international friends bring to New Zealand.

    The following services are available, and we encourage you to access them if required:

    New Zealand is committed to making sure all international students feel safe and well, and that the country remains a welcoming and open society:

    • The New Zealand Government’s pastoral care requirements are world leading and set high expectations for the support of international students. The requirements ensure education providers are providing support, information and counselling services. Also, that students are safe and properly cared for.

    • New Zealand’s International Student Wellbeing Strategy includes a focus on health and wellbeing, and inclusion, and funds initiatives that support these aims.

    • The New Zealand International Education Strategy 2018-2030 is focussed on delivering excellent education and student experience, and ensuring international students are welcome and safe.

    Noho ora mai (stay well, look after yourself).

  • ENZ calls for funding proposals for New Zealand-China research partnerships

    The New Zealand-China Tripartite Partnership Fund 2025 offers funding of up to NZD 20,000-30,000 including GST for each partnership project, with the call for proposals open until 2 March 2025.

    Funding proposals are due by 2 March 2025. Download the New Zealand-China Tripartite Partnership Fund 2025 Guidance and Call for Proposals and the Proposal Form. Send your completed proposal as a PDF, and any questions, to china@enz.govt.nz.   


    The fund supports new or existing research partnerships between New Zealand and Chinese universities. There are usually three universities involved – two from China and one from New Zealand.     

    The Tripartite Partnership Fund, administered by ENZ, has a pool of up to NZD 100,000 in 2025 for research partnerships in the arts, humanities, social sciences, sciences and applied sciences. Designed to encourage strategic academic relationships, the fund focuses on fostering relationships and the development of the partnership rather than funding the research itself. 

    The Tripartite Partnership Fund is a key piece of education cooperation between New Zealand and China. Projects under the fund have enjoyed a high level of visibility and attention in both New Zealand and China.  

    Established in 2005, the Tripartite Research Partnership is a valued part of the New Zealand – China bilateral education relationship and we welcome proposals from researchers to join the growing list of funding recipients.
