Dutch Gaming Authority Once Again Supports Information Projects on Gambling Risks
The Dutch Gaming Authority (KSA) is once again financing four information projects on the risks of gambling, from the Addiction Prevention Fund (VPF). This involves a continuation of the e-learning gambling problem, the development of additional materials on gambling within the Helder op School programme, information for football players via the VVCS and explanations about gambling on Steffie.nl.
The money for these projects comes from the VPF, which was established in 2021 and is financed by an additional gambling levy on providers of risky games of chance. The Gaming Authority manages this fund and works with various partners in the field of gambling addiction prevention on the spending of the resources. The VPF has multiple spending objectives, including information about the risks of gambling.
E-learning early detection of gambling problems
Jellinek has developed a digital training offer for professionals together with GGZ Ecademy to inform them about addiction problems in online gambling. This includes first-line professionals such as doctors, POH GGZ, psychologists and debt counselors. This way they can better and earlier identify a gambling addiction. This e-learning module was launched during a well-attended webinar. The newly provided funding will further increase the name recognition of the module.
Clear at school: gambling
Helder op school is a prevention programme of the Trimbos Institute that supports schools in promoting a healthy lifestyle and preventing risky behaviour among pupils and students on themes such as alcohol, tobacco and drugs. Previously, the Trimbos Institute developed materials to improve the signaling of and guidance for risky or problematic gambling behaviour among MBO students. This project is now being extended and expanded with, among other things, scripts for parent evenings on this theme and teaching materials to discourage gambling.
Prevention and information for football players via VVCS
The Association of Contract Players (VVCS) visits the player groups of all Ere- and Eerste Divisie clubs, including the U-21 and U-19 selections, to provide information about problematic gambling behaviour. A flyer with information about the Gambling Stop is now being added to the existing information offer of VVCS and Gamban software, which can block gambling sites. VVCS also starts training ex-players with addiction problems to become experts by experience. They will then be deployed to provide information during selection visits.
Explanation about gambling on Steffie.nl (delivery: autumn 2025)
Steffie.nl explains all kinds of subjects in understandable language. This makes it an important platform for people with low literacy and people with a mild intellectual disability. Commissioned by the Ksa, the Stichting Leer Zelf Online is working on four modules on the subject of gambling, namely “What is gambling?”, “Addicted to gambling”, “Self-test gambling” and “Recognizing gambling games”. These modules can then be found on Steffie.nl.
KSA underlines the importance of targeted information about the risks of gambling for different target groups through these four projects. On the one hand, the KSA wants to make young people and young adults aware of these risks and on the other hand, enable healthcare professionals, but also footballers, to do more with this subject because of the exemplary role they fulfill for many people.
