Only by giving economical incentives sustainability can create the job opportunities the developing world needs.  EVVEN C.A. is a novel innovative development project, on the Island Margarita, Venezuela with the high return on Investment and the expected high earnings EVVEN is able to give an example how to produce shrimps, organic fertilizer and chitin. Additionally EVVEN C.A. sets an example of how to ease poverty if not erase it. Tropical rainforests, coral reefs, wetlands, and other rich natural habitats are degraded by logging, agricultural expansion, over-fishing, and other unsustainable resource use. Unenforceable policies often prevent adequate protection of parks and reserves. Recognizing the powerful role of these forces in bio-diversity loss, EVVEN has used economics to seek solutions to issues impacting conservation at the global, national and field site level. We believe that the economy will help to change the way we see the world. In the last 20 years the world has learned that the re-cycle form of prime materials did turn out to produce profits. A new way to use economics to gain a rapid and intense understanding of development trends and other elements that threaten critical ecosystems. EVVEN C.A. has identified opportunities for conservation and evaluated alternative methods of mitigating threats. 

La Fundación La Salle / EDIMAR has conducted socio-economic assessments to define the geographic scope and urgency of these threats, and to analyze the local people's incentives to develop. Once the economic incentives driving the current development are thoroughly identified, a strategy can be developed to offset those incentives through conservation interventions.The shrimp fishery, South America's largest in economic terms, apart from the Oil producing factor is facing a financial and environmental crisis. Fundacion La Salle / EDIMAR's past research has indicated that fishing levels are far above the carrying capacity of the area, and the fishing fleets are too large. This excessive fishing effort, according to EVVEN 's economic analysis of the shrimp industry, revealed that profit margins have declined and that returns on capital invested are economically unattractive. Environmentally, the fishery faces over-exploitation of shrimp stocks, bio-diversity loss, and habitat degradation. EVVEN has developed a "win-win" strategy to help secure bio-diversity conservation and make the shrimp culture economically and environmentally sustainable.
