Description

EVA aims to bring a different kind of economy into practice. It aims to develop an economy that contradicts economic trends of scale, profit maximization, relocation, and increasing pressure on workers and precarious working conditions. Instead they want to create a 'Human Economy' tailored to the neighbourhood and its residents and employees.

The projects that EVA develops aim to cater to local needs and provide accessible services for their users. EVA starts by listening to local residents to gain insight into the needs of those that live there. Even after this first consultation phase of a new service and once the development process is underway, EVA further tests their ideas with smaller groups. In addition, the initiatives developed EVA are created to involve the neighbourhood as to strengthen the community fabric. In this way, EVA works to really provide what people need.
