The two-week programme brought together 10 New Zealand English Language Schools (ELS) for tailored engagement events across Chile, Brazil, and Colombia – supporting deeper in-market relationships and raising awareness of New Zealand as a study destination.
Strong engagement across key markets
Spanning five cities – Santiago, Belo Horizonte, São Paulo, Bogotá and Medellín – the roadshow combined education agent-focused seminars with student-facing events.
Across the programme:
Delegates took part in five Connect with New Zealand agent events and five Kia ora Nueva Zelanda student-facing events.
More than 80 agency representatives engaged with New Zealand providers.
Each provider completed an average of 12 meetings per agent event.These interactions enabled providers to reconnect with established partners, build new relationships, and engage with prospective students through presentations, networking sessions and fairs.
Supporting a key pathway sector
South America Roadshow New Zealand Provider participants with ENZ and some prospective students at Kia ora New Zealand event (in partnership with Travelmate) held at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais in Belo Horizonte, Brazil
The roadshow focused on English language education, a key entry point for students from Brazil, Chile and Colombia into further study in New Zealand.
While the sector has not yet fully recovered, strengthening agent relationships and increasing awareness remain important to supporting its growth and its role as a pathway into degree and secondary school programmes.
Building momentum in the region
The 2026 programme builds on the inaugural roadshow in March 2025 and reflects ongoing efforts to deepen engagement with agents across Latin America.
Initial feedback from providers highlights strong satisfaction with the programme’s format and outcomes, alongside a clear appetite to maintain momentum.
Dr Kate Herbert, Principal of Kiwi English Academy, said the roadshow provided valuable opportunities to reconnect and build partnerships.
“I can confidently say that the roadshow was a huge success for New Zealand – reconnecting with some education agents after many years and also meeting many new ones. We have had positive responses from several agents already and hopefully that will continue.”
ENZ’s Director of Engagement, Latin America, Javiera Visedo, said in-person engagement remains critical to grow awareness and build preference for New Zealand as a study destination.
“These events enable deeper, more meaningful connections with our stakeholders – particularly our agent partners – and support confidence when speaking to students about New Zealand. In an increasingly competitive environment, it’s incredibly encouraging to hear how much agents and institutions value these opportunities. They consistently tell us that these events empower them with the confidence, insights, and enthusiasm they need when speaking to students about New Zealand. This is exactly the kind of impact we, as ENZ, need to continue delivering.”
