NEW YORK: Global conflicts from South Sudan’s political crisis to the United States’ recent war with Iran are putting more children at risk of suffering. One humanitarian duo wants to ensure conflict-stricken children get funding for an often-overlooked need: education. Under an agreement announced Wednesday, the LEGO Foundation committed $97 million to expand International Rescue Committee programs that use play to help millions of children learn and recover. “Children who are born in conflict have their childhood stolen from them,” IRC President David Miliband told The Associated Press.
