Loterie Romande's approach to promoting responsible gaming focuses on awareness and moderation. The campaign aimed to:

  • Raise public awareness of problem gambling through video content.
  • Encourage the use of responsible gaming moderators.
  • Promote the national Helpline for gambling problems.
     

Key elements of the campaign included:

  • Avoidance of moralistic or anxiety-inducing messages, instead offering solutions and action steps.
  • The use of humour and relatable scenarios to connect with the audience.
  • A digital campaign across various platforms, including news websites, online newspapers, and social media, structured around three distinct videos.
  • The campaign's success was reflected in a significant increase in visits to the Responsible Gaming section on Loterie Romande's website, with a notable click-through rate demonstrating the effectiveness of their approach.
