I think there are also important questions for the UN agencies receiving this funding from FIFA.
It's understandable they need resources for vital work, but what efforts did they make to push FIFA to compensate workers when signing up for this?

"By giving $50 million to UN agencies but not a single penny for the families of migrant workers who died building the stadiums, this Legacy Fund just seems like another attempt to distract from FIFA’s lack of compensation for the people harmed by its own actions."
