Ecuador education market profile

Australia is expanding its people-to-people links with Ecuador through development cooperation, including scholarships to study in Australia and the Direct Aid Program (DAP).

Ecuadorian students are eligible for Australian Development Scholarships and two students received scholarships to study in Australia in 2012.

The educational services sector holds good potential, and is growing, albeit from a low base.
