The European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA) is pleased to announce the second edition of the European Safer Gambling Week (ESGW) taking place on 17-23 October 2022.

ESGW is an annual cross-industry initiative to promote safer gambling in Europe and was established by EGBA in 2021. It is a cross-border initiative and supported by EGBA members and a group of European online gambling associations who come together each year to encourage open and honest conversations about safer gambling in Europe.

The objective is to raise awareness about safer gambling; provide customers with the information they need to gamble more safely; sign-post the informational resources and help available for those who need it and discuss the latest developments in safer gambling regulations and research.

While ESGW focuses on a week of events and initiatives, EGBA and its members are committed to promoting a strong culture of safer gambling each and every day. However, during ESGW, you can expect to see a concerted effort to make safer gambling information even more visible to customers in an effort to increase awareness.

This year’s edition is being organised by thirteen European online gambling associations, including the EGBA, and there will be a range of practical activities organised across European countries to raise awareness about safer gambling.
