  • A flurry of international education events in Europe

    September is often a busy time in the world of international education in Europe. To make the most of the time when students are gathering information to support their study-abroad decision-making, the Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) European-based team were making their presence felt at various events to support the school and tertiary subsectors grow their European connections and relationships. 

    This year’s 34th European Association for International Education Conference (EAIE) was held in Toulouse, France and saw a record number of 7,300 delegates from all around the world attend. The New Zealand pavilion had a strong presence with seven of our universities joining the ENZ booth.

    ENZ’s Associate Director of Engagement in Europe, Olga Elli, said that these conferences are a fantastic opportunity to showcase New Zealand’s expertise and offerings on a global stage.  

    “These conferences are a place where relationships are started and nurtured. They result in meaningful partnerships, exchanges and projects for the New Zealand international higher education sector. 

    “They are also an opportunity to showcase the manaakitanga that New Zealand is famous for. We hosted a get-together at the New Zealand pavilion providing New Zealand wine and French cheese, the perfect match to share with our trusted partners in Europe.,” said Olga.

    While in France, Olga also attended the student recruitment fair, Elevate, in Paris. This was organised by Study Experience, a Paris-based agency. With nearly 800 French students studying across all sectors in 2023, France is the second largest European country sending students to New Zealand. This trend looks set to continue with plenty of interest in the New Zealand stand at the fair, particularly for students looking for full-degree study programmes.

    After Germany, Italy represents the second largest source of high school students from Europe and in 2023, New Zealand welcomed 227 Italian high school students to our shores. Growing this market and supporting agents to promote New Zealand is therefore a priority for ENZ.  

    To support this growth, several New Zealand high school representatives and Italian agents were given the opportunity to meet at the New Zealand Embassy in Rome in September. This was a chance to come together, connect and identify opportunities to work together going forward.

    The event was initiated by Terry Kraettli, Director International of Epsom Grammar School, with support from ENZ and the New Zealand Ambassador to Italy, Jackie Frizelle.

    ENZ’s Market Development Manager Europe, Adina Stoye, said that it was encouraging to see such a strong interest in New Zealand high schools.  

    “ENZ will be supporting several more initiatives in the coming months to build on this momentum and further grow the Italian market,” added Adina.
