Argentina.- The City Lottery (LOTBA) reported that it continues to develop its responsible gaming awareness campaign in clubs and institutions during the summer.
LOTBA indicated that, together with the Sports Secretariat of the City Government of Buenos Aires, they visit clubs and institutions to continue raising awareness about the risks associated with illegal gambling, with a special focus on preventing child gambling addiction. Through playful activities, educational workshops, and informative materials, they support families and minors, promoting safer and healthier gaming habits.
«We are convinced that the best way to prevent minors from accessing illegal online games is by talking about the issue, opening spaces for dialogue where learning and building can take place to raise greater awareness. Because talking is winning,» they conveyed.
