<![CDATA[This study examines how equity-driven curriculum design can catalyze transformative leadership within multicultural school systems. As global classrooms become increasingly diverse, traditional curricula often fail to address disparities experienced by marginalized learners. Through qualitative library research and content analysis, this study synthesizes theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented perspectives to explore how culturally responsive curricula promote inclusive learning ecosystems. The findings highlight that equity-driven curriculum design requires not only the integration of diverse cultural perspectives but also the dismantling of hidden power structures embedded in instructional practices. Transformative leadership emerges as a crucial driver, demanding cultural competence, collaborative decision-making, and critical pedagogical reflection from school leaders. The study emphasizes that effective equity implementation depends on teacher empowerment, distributed leadership models, and coherent policy frameworks that align curriculum, assessment, and institutional values. Moreover, technology-enhanced learning, accessibility principles, and Universal Design for Learning strengthen equity outcomes in increasingly digital environments. Overall, this research underscores the interconnectedness of curriculum, leadership, and policy in fostering democratic, socially just educational systems that affirm students’ cultural identities, reduce achievement gaps, and empower communities. The study concludes that achieving equity requires systemic transformation grounded in cultural responsiveness, shared accountability, and continuous professional development.]]>
