Expanded collaboration agreement between UC and UGM Indonesia
The MoU between the two universities was originally signed in 2012, and renewed in 2021.
The renewed MoU aims to facilitate broader collaboration, including the development of short courses, student mobility, dual degree programmes, and study abroad exchanges, as UC looks to increase engagement in the Asia-Pacific region.
In comparison, the initial MoU was largely built around cooperation with the UC Geography Department under the Community Resilience and Economic Development programme (CaRED), a partnership between the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) and UGM, designed to contribute to sustainable development in Indonesia.
UGM and New Zealand speakers at the ceremony emphasised the importance of maintaining friendships and partnerships in the international education space, especially while we cannot connect in person. UGM referenced the impact of projects developed under the CaRED Programme, supported by MFAT.
UC’s Assistant Vice Chancellor of Engagement, Brett Berquist, reflected on his time spent in Yogyakarta, and on the work achieved through CaRED which included three NZ universities at the time – Massey University, University of Auckland, and UC, working with UGM on economic development research projects “particularly focusing on the Eastern parts of your country [Indonesia]. It was a really wonderful story of research collaboration coming together.”
“I’m particularly thrilled to continue a bilateral relationship between Canterbury and UGM which is well known to be the most prestigious institution in Indonesia.
“The challenges you face are significant, but at the same time, the thought leadership and the research you undertake for economic development and serving your region is also inspiring.”
Ben Burrowes, Regional Director – Asia at Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao, says the agreement aligns well with ENZ’s goal of building a more sustainable international education sector, with an increased focus on diversified products and services offered to learners both in New Zealand and across the globe.

Rautaki Māori update - March 2022
The first wānanga explored what ‘global citizenship’ means from a Māori world view. The second wānanga discussed the Prime Minister’s Scholarship programme, how to grow Māori participation in it, and how to support rangatahi through creating programme connections with iwi and the Māori economy, so the programme provides greater value for Māori.
The sessions were attended by 22 participants from across iwi and sector interests, including from universities, other education providers and the Centres of Asia-Pacific Excellence.
Representatives from the newly formed Kāhui Kaupapa also attended – Māori alumni of the Prime Minister’s Scholarships for Asia and Latin America.
This work is long-term in nature. We aim to build partnerships with iwi, Māori and Māori providers of education services, to transform the understanding of international education and ensure the education system delivers with, and for Māori in the international context.

Funding available to reimagine international education
Registrations of interest are open now for ENZ’s International Education Product Innovation Fund (PIF), closing on Wednesday 4 May 2022. Funding is available to all New Zealand-based organisations and individuals with fresh ideas for international education.
The PIF will support providers of education – whether established, new or emerging – to explore, develop and test pilot projects of new products and services that reimagine international education.
“New” could mean the mode of delivery, the configuration, the learner experience and learner outcomes, or the type of collaboration. The pilot projects developed through the PIF will help explore what could set New Zealand apart from its competitors, how students want to engage with New Zealand education, and how to increase the sector’s resilience to future shocks.
“We are extremely excited to now be receiving registrations of interest for the Product Innovation Fund”, says Euan Howden, ENZ’s Director of Innovation. “By encouraging and enabling the development of new, innovative products and services, we are seeking to position the sector for a more sustainable and resilient future and take advantage of trends such as alternative credentials, life-long learning and flexible learning.”
Underlying the PIF is the principle of tukutuku, or partnership. Each pilot project supported through the PIF will be a partnership based on mutual benefit and reciprocity between ENZ and the provider.
ENZ will offer funding of up to $300,000 per pilot (but is open to considering proposals that seek greater funding), as well as connections, support and credibility. In turn, ENZ is looking for applicants who can show a commitment of resource, a willingness to share lessons, reporting and insights for broader benefit, an openness to new thinking, and willingness to give best effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
The PIF is one of ENZ’s initiatives underway to build a sustainable and diverse international education sector for New Zealand which is more resilient to future shocks such as COVID-19. The programme is funded by the Covid Response and Recovery Fund and is linked to the Government’s Strategic Recovery Plan for International Education.
The results of the pilots supported through the PIF will eventually inform recommendations to the Government in September 2023 on future investment in the development and diversification of international education.
