Exhibiting at the NZIEC

On 7 and 8 Aug, the New Zealand International Education Conference (NZIEC) was held at SKYCITY Auckland Convention Centre in New Zealand. This is an annual conference held to lead the international education thinking in New Zealand. For each conference, a country is nominated as the ‘Country of Honour’ where exhibitions and cultural events featuring the nominated country are held during the conference. This year, Japan was nominated as the Country of Honour, due to the country gaining worldwide attention as the host of the upcoming Rugby World Cup 2019 and the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and Paralympics Games.

CLAIR Sydney ran a booth with the Consulate-General of Japan in Auckland to promote the Rugby World Cup 2019, Tokyo 2020 Olympics and Paralympics Games, and the World Masters Games 2021 KANSAI. Conference attendees who visited the booth all have a keen interest in Japan and the upcoming major international sports events held in the country. Some conference attendees said they are going to Japan to watch some of the games.

CLAIR Sydney will continue to promote major international sports events in New Zealand and Australia, with the aim of encouraging exchange activities through these events between New Zealand, Australia and Japanese local regions.
