This research examines marginalized people in the USA and New Zealand, and their access to higher education and how they fare once enrolled. It looks at societal beliefs and values that contribute to marginalization, and how applying a diversity framework and organizational learning evaluation process provides a holistic approach to achieving equity. This approach goes beyond compositional racial/ethnic diversity to create conditions for diverse perspectives, pedagogy, theory, and educational policy and practice, thereby transforming the institution itself.
