Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao at the NAFSA Conference in Denver, Colorado has announced a global marketing campaign emphasising New Zealand’s attributes for international students. The country opens for business on 31 July after two years of closed borders. The campaign focuses on stories of eight international students from China, Colombia, Germany, India, Japan, Thailand, USA, and Vietnam. The students aim to share their experience in New Zealand.
Education New Zealand invites these students to work alongside Kiri Nathan, MÄori fashion designer, to collaborate on designing education garments focused on manaakitanga (care of people), kaitiakitanga (care of place), and the pÅtiki spirit of youthful energy. The narratives in the campaign aim to focus on the students’ experiences and goals, and explore themes such as work and career readiness, sustainability, and innovation through collaboration.
