GENEVA (AN) — More than half of the world’s 7.1 million school-age refugee children fail to receive a basic education due to host nations' lack of money, classrooms, teachers and other resources, the U.N. refugee agency reported on Friday.
As many as 3.7 million refugee children between the ages of five to 18 are out of school, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, or UNHCR, said in its report.
