Those involved in EA are

1) caring of other sentient beings and

2) humble, critical and clear thinkers

Wouldn't focusing on the development of these things in children via the education system solve the root cause of a large portion of the suffering in this world (i.e., suffering that is inflicted or allowed by human decision-makers)?

In a world where the average person had such qualities, we would have substantially less suffering. For example, video game developers would put in place safeguards against video game addiction even if it meant smaller profits. Casino owners would do the same. Cigarettes would have been illegalized as soon its harms were known. Many more people would not eat meat (assuming an inhumane way of producing it). No one would die of hunger or malnourishment. There would not be human trafficking, torture, and other terrible crimes. Etc.

Having said that, where does [efforts to develop these qualities in people] rank on EA's priorities?
