Transformation, diversity and organisational change within institutions of higher education

Abstract

In June 1999, South Africa's second democratic elections were held, and the ANC Government was returned to power with an overwhelming majority. Now, as the country at last starts moving towards establishing a non-racial society based on a constitution that embodies equal rights for every person, the need to establish an equitable and effective education system has become a top priority. This requires a transformation process that will necessitate the management of diversity, and organisational changes within our institutions of higher education.
