  • New Zealand Global Competence Certificate

    The cultural exchange programme started as a pilot partnership between Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao, AFS Intercultural Programs Inc. and Massey University in 2020.  Initially set up to support international students remaining in New Zealand due to COVID-19, the programme has expanded rapidly, enabling us to maintain and grow relationships with key international partners. With limited travel opportunities, we can still build global citizenship by connecting students and teachers with peers across the world.   

    The NZGCC, delivered by Massey University, develops cultural self-awareness, emotional resilience, and builds bridges across cultures. It also piques people’s interest in visiting each other in better times. Participants in the programme have described it as ‘life-changing’.   

    The programme delivers animated videos, quizzes, assignments, and weekly live sessions for learners to talk with each other online in a virtual classroom in real time and learn about life from perspectives other than their own.   

    Watch a short video clip about the GCC in 2021.

  • Dubai Expo Global Kaitiakitanga winners

    The Global Kaitiakitanga Project was a partnership between New Zealand at Expo 2020 and Young Enterprise.  With a focus on sustainability, the project provided high-quality business mentoring and international collaboration for young New Zealand innovators.  In a seven-month programme from March to September 2021, five finalist businesses were supported to develop and scale their business proposals. Two entries were judged joint programme winners in a Dragons’ Den style pitch event in September 2021.   

    Four students representing the joint winners, Abalro Health and GreenKiwi Supplements joined guests as New Zealand’s Youth Ambassadors as part of their learning about doing business in the Middle East. The students were truly inspirational, and showcased the strengths of a New Zealand education, which encourages students to be critical thinkers, problem solvers and lifelong learners through independent projects and hands-on experience.

    From Bayfield High School in Dunedin, students Robert Donohoe, Abby Green and Alex Livingstone (above) harnessed the power of raw barberries to create a natural supplement to treat acne. Their company, Abalro Health, is the only New Zealand-based company using barberries. Research has shown that barberries reduce acne by 43% in just four weeks.

    Max Donaldson (above) of Kerikeri High School drew on his passion for olives to develop a first-to-market, New Zealand grown olive leaf supplement, which can support immune and cardiovascular health from what is normally an industry byproduct. GreenKiwi Supplements is a vertically integrated business developed by Max to pioneer traceable, New Zealand grown olive leaf for the global nutraceutical marketplace. 

  • Publishing Association NZ launch international education website

    Supported by funding from Education New Zealand Manpou ki te Ao (ENZ) under the Future Focus Programme (FFP), the new website profiles New Zealand education publishers for key export markets and customers. Earlier FFP research highlighted that being visible online was one of the key challenges facing New Zealand education publishers seeking to grow their exports.

    The website enables education publishers to showcase New Zealand’s pioneering work in Reading Recovery, Big Book shared reading, and resources for the revitalisation of New Zealand’s indigenous Māori language and culture. 

    It aims to support marketing efforts in the key markets of Australia, China, the United States, and the United Kingdom. It will also be used to support New Zealand’s presence at major education publishing events, such as Bologna Children’s Book Fair and the Frankfurt Book Fair, in 2022 and beyond. 

    The website allows for a quick and easy search including by publisher, category, and publishing rights and demonstrates the quality of education products and services developed in New Zealand.  

    Alana Pellow, Business Development Manager at ENZ, says Catriona Ferguson, Association Director of PANZ and her team worked hard to bring this website to life, with the help of education publishers who provided great content. 

    “The outcome is a user-friendly, appealing and comprehensive website that will showcase the unique products and services of our education publishers to the world,” says Alana.
