Lincoln Caplan, partner in SeaChange Capital Parnters, a new nonprofit firm: Effective Practice Incentive Fund, created by New Leaders for New Schools.

Alan Dershowitz, professor, Harvard Law School: Start the world’s first and only genuine human rights organization that prioritizes its resources in accordance with the seriousness of the violations and not the ideological bias of the organization.
