Climate Goals & Targets

Environmental Challenges

• Rapid expansion of the global gambling industry, fueled by online gambling, mobile accessibility, increased legalization, and expansion into low-income and middle-income countries with weak regulatory infrastructure.
• Lack of global monitoring of gambling harms, with reliance on population surveys that produce conservative estimates.
• Insufficient attention from governments to gambling harms and inadequate prevention and mitigation efforts.
• Influence of the gambling industry over research and policy, leading to a focus on individual responsibility rather than industry practices.
• Lack of international coordination on regulatory approaches.
• Blurring of boundaries between digital gaming and gambling.
• Sophisticated marketing techniques used by gambling companies, including social media and influencer marketing.
• Conflicts of interest between governments and the gambling industry due to revenue generation from gambling.

Mitigation Strategies

• Stronger policy and regulatory controls focused on harm prevention and public health protection, independent of industry influence.
• International coordination on regulatory approaches.
• Increased research and improved monitoring systems to provide reliable evidence on gambling harms and control methods.
• Population-level interventions such as enforcing legal age limits, restricting availability and accessibility, prohibiting advertising, implementing universal consumption limits, and controlling harmful product characteristics.
• Selective interventions to support at-risk individuals.
• Transition away from industry-funded research and treatment.
• Increased investment from independent sources for gambling research and treatment.
• Incorporation of a focus on gambling harms into UN strategies and workplans.
• Development of an international alliance to provide thought leadership and advocacy.
