The EAIF funds many of the things you listed and Peter Wildeford has been especially interested in making them happen! Also, the Open Phil GHW team is expanding a lot and has been funding several excellent grants in these areas.
That said, I agree with the overall sentiment you expressed and definitely think there’s something there.
One effect is also: there’s not so much proactive encouragement to apply for funding with neartermist projects, which results in fewer things getting funded, with results in people assuming that there’s no funding, even though sometimes funders are quite open to funding the kinds of things you mention.
I do think there are opportunities that GiveWell is missing, but then again I’ve found it hard to find grantmakers who would actually do better than them.
