As the future leaders of our country, developing “Asia-literate” young New Zealanders is the focus of Asia:NZ’s education programme.

We deliver resources for Asian studies in schools and tertiary institutions and actively forge educational links to Asia through grants, scholarships and exchanges.

Only by learning more about our Asian neighbours - their history, their culture, their languages - can we make the most of the tremendous opportunities the region offers. Asia:NZ’s experience shows that the most powerful way to do this is to provide experiential learning opportunities.

 
Asia Knowledge – a website developed by the Ministry of Education, in association with Asia:NZ to help prepare students for a future with Asia. Includes ‘Showcase China’ – multi level and cross curricular resource on the Beijing Olympics; information on being an Asia Aware school; professional development opportunities and more.
