Education New Zealand's confirmed new financial targets for our international student market.

Its strategy aims to build the sector's economic contribution by $4.4 billion over the next three years.

International students here are at 86% of pre-pandemic numbers.

He says it's good to see sector engagement but acknowledges there's still a long-way to go in recovery, which will span years.
