New Zealand International Education Conference KI TUA (NZIEC KI TUA) 2024
The New Zealand International Education Conference KI TUA (NZIEC KI TUA) is the annual conference for New Zealand’s international education sector.
Established in 1991, NZIEC KI TUA brings together practitioners and leaders from across New Zealand’s international education sector to share good practice and explore strategies for future growth and development. It provides an opportunity to discuss, strategise and connect with expert speakers and delegates.
NZIEC KI TUA 2024 will be held on Tuesday 6 to Thursday 8 August 2024 at Tākina Convention Centre in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington.
A welcome function will occur on Tuesday evening; two days of conference sessions will be held on Wednesday and Thursday.
Our Mission and Values
NZIEC KI TUA’s mission is to stimulate international education thinking in Aotearoa New Zealand.
NZIEC KI TUA’s values include:
• Hononga: Connections
• Māramatanga: Enlightenment
• Wero: Challenge
• Ārahitia: Direction/Leadership.
He rā ki tua
Look positively toward the future, Better times are coming.
Ki Tua is not about returning to the ‘status quo’. It’s about reconnecting to the world, finding a fresh perspective, and taking a new approach.
The adoption of NZIEC KI TUA reflects ENZ’s commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the Maihi Karauna, the Crown’s Strategy for Māori Language Revitalisation.
Our new name of NZIEC KI TUA also reflects Aotearoa New Zealand’s distinct cultural identity and the importance of continuing to develop our sector’s annual conference.
