Join the Young Leaders Network

The Young Leaders Network is for talented, Asia-literate young people destined to become leaders of New Zealand’s future relations with Asia.

The Young Leaders Network is open to people who:

  • are aged 18 to 35
  • show leadership potential and
  • show a commitment to furthering NZ-Asia relations.

You can be a New Zealand citizen or permanent resident, or a citizen of an Asian country in New Zealand for study or work.

Asia:NZ issues invitations to join the network to current and former recipients of Asia:NZ scholarships and grants, and to students from Asian countries in New Zealand on government scholarships.

People who don’t fit into these categories, but can demonstrate a commitment to NZ-Asia relations, are welcome to apply by submitting an application form.
