Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters has announced New Zealand will contribute $5 million dollars to efforts in conjunction with Australia to strengthen the provision of high-quality schooling. 

The DPM made the announcement during his visit to the Pacific nation during his Pacific led mission. 

Minister Peters says, “New Zealand and Nauru have a warm, long-standing relationship, and we are strengthening our engagement through enhanced political, security, and development cooperation.” 

While in Nauru, the New Zealand delegation is meeting President David Adeang, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Lionel Aingimea, and other Ministers and Members of Parliament, taking the opportunity to discuss shared economic and development priorities and to reflect on regional challenges.

Nauru is the second destination of the delegation’s Pacific tour this week, following Solomon Islands and to be followed by Niue.
