Overview

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade is responsible for managing the New Zealand International Development Cooperation Programme. The purpose of New Zealand’s aid is to develop shared prosperity and stability in the Pacific and beyond, drawing on the best of New Zealand’s knowledge and skills. We support sustainable development in developing countries to reduce poverty and contribute to a more secure, equitable and prosperous world. We follow the principles of understanding, friendship, mutual benefit and collective ambition in how we design and deliver our aid programme.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade are looking to procure a conference management team to oversee the logistics in the lead up and during the Conference of Pacific Education Ministers. Formerly the Pacific Islands Forum Education Ministers (FEdMM), the Conference of Pacific Education Ministers (CPEM) provides the highest level of governance for the Pacific Regional Education Framework 2018-2030 (PacREF). Education Ministers from Pacific Island countries meet on a regular cycle to discuss the status of education in the region and to set direction around key regional priorties.

The inaugural Conference of Pacific Education Ministers will be hosted by Aotearoa New Zealand from 20th-23rd March 2023 in Auckland. While the Conference is expected to be hui kanohi i te kanohi to enable Ministers to build relationships and to engage in both formal and informal dialogue with each other and with other stakeholders, delivery of the Conference will take a hybrid approach to ensure participants can attend virtually. It is expected to be attended by 17 Pacific Island countries including Ministers and senior education officials as well as development partners, and national and Pacific regional civil society organisations.

We are looking for a Supplier with experience managing Ministerial level conferences, who has sound relationships with relevant Auckland based suppliers, and who can demonstrate an innovative approach which showcases Aotearoa New Zealand and reflects the cultures of the Pacific region. The Conference aims to showcase New Zealand. This may include site visits and opportunities for indigenous, Māori and Pacifika, social enterprises or SME’s to be engaged.
