• Sommario/riassunto: This e-book explores the ways in which public policy can be used to move forward agendas that promote access to educational opportunities for marginalized populations from many vantage points. The underlying premise of the issue is that public policy must employ a framework that takes into account the experiences of marginalized groups in educational venues, and must be crafted, implemented, and evaluated based on the equity it offers.
