The Platform for Sustainable Gaming and the Andalusian Institute of Youth signed a collaboration agreement.
Spain.- The Platform for Sustainable Gaming and the Andalusian Institute of Youth signed a collaboration agreement on the FES Project, a campaign for the prevention of behavioral addictions aimed at teenagers, schools, and families.
The Platform for Sustainable Gaming stated that the objectives of the FES Project align with the institution's plan. The Strategic Youth Plan 2022-2026 considers that education and lifestyles are some of the main determinants of health, which is why it is important to acquire healthy life habits and identify health assets at early stages of life, as a way to improve adult health.
The Andalusian Institute of Youth is assigned, among others, the functions related to the planning, programming, organization, monitoring, and evaluation of actions in the field of youth that are promoted by the Administration of the Junta de Andalucía, as well as collaboration with other Public Administrations and entities of the Autonomous Community. Additionally, it promotes participation, promotion, information, and training in matters of youth.

From the Platform for Sustainable Gaming, as an entity that brings together companies and associations from the different subsectors of private gaming in Spain, they celebrated the agreement. The FES Project landed in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia in 2021, "being the first national territory to opt for a public-private collaboration model that would facilitate the prevention of behavioral addictions in vulnerable groups," the organization conveyed.
The Platform for Sustainable Gaming also extended the FES Project to the town of La Laguna, in Tenerife. The organization, along with the government of the Canary Islands, presented its campaign for the prevention of behavioral addictions in teenagers, which will be made available to all educational centers in the Canary Islands.
