For longtermist stuff directing think tank folk to the SFF would probably be best, and perhaps helping them think of a proposal that is aligned with longtermist ideas. I don’t think LTFF would fund this kind of thing (based on their payout reports etc).
For animal rights stuff probably the Animal Welfare Fund (or Farmed Animal Funders) might be interested in funding think tank folk outside of Europe / North America.
For other topics I have no good ideas.
If you have say £250k+ could just put out a proposal (e.g. on the EA Forum) that you would fund think tanks and share it with people in the EA policy space and see who gets in touch.
