What is the Business Education Partnership?
The Business Education Partnership (BEP) initiative calls for an increased focus to be placed on Asia knowledge, skills and competencies in secondary schools - both to ensure young New Zealanders can compete in the region, and to keep New Zealand’s relationships with Asian countries strong.
Asia is growing faster than any other region, has rapidly expanding markets for goods and services, already influences our culture and way of life, and is set to play a major role in world affairs for decades to come. By 2026, one in six New Zealanders will be of Asian descent.
