People
The Confucius Institute at the University is staffed by both Victoria University of Wellington and Xiamen University.
The Advisory Board of the Confucius Institute at Victoria University of Wellington meet regularly to plan new projects.
Ms. Fiona Mann is the Director of the Confucius Institute at Victoria University of Wellington. Prof. Wen Chen is the Deputy Director of the Confucius Institute from Xiamen University. Ms. Wenqian Chen is a Chinese Teacher from Xiamen University. The Confucius Institute benefits from the support it receives from a number of people from the Chinese community in Wellington who deliver Discover China workshops.
Our Advisory Board has senior staff from both universities, led by Roger Shew, Director International Victoria University of Wellington and Director of Chinese International Education College/Overseas Education College at Xiamen University, Ms Chen Zhiwei. The Advisory Board meets at least twice a year to review work-in-progress, plan new projects, and discuss personnel and budgetary issues.
