ICEF Podcast: Study destinations Australia and New Zealand back in the game

In this episode of our continuing podcast series, recorded live at ICEF ANZA in Adelaide, ICEF’s Craig Riggs (editor of ICEF Monitor) and Martijn van de Veen (vice-president of business development) discuss the latest developments in our sector, with a special focus on the outlook for Chinese outbound and some of the latest study trends for European study destinations.

They are joined by an expert panel for a feature discussion on the reopening of two other key destinations: Australia and New Zealand. The panelists include Brett Blacker, the CEO of English Australia, and Geneviève Rousseau Cung, partnerships manager for Education New Zealand.

The episode concludes with a closer look at another key growth market in international education: Bangladesh.
