Tom Dannatt: Accessibility to Education for Children in the World’s Toughest Places
Thanks for having me, Spiffy! Did you know that 1 in 10 children worldwide don’t go to school? School is important for children to learn life skills and make friends, and, yet, because of poverty, war, climate change, and natural disasters like earthquakes and floods, they can’t go. At Street Child we help children in more than 25 countries, like Ukraine and Afghanistan, access education. We build schools, train teachers, and help parents earn money for school fees.
