As gambling products and markets continue to evolve, so too must our approaches to understanding what actually reduces harm. But without clear evaluation, how do we know if safer gambling initiatives are working?
This session explores how outcomes-based evaluation can strengthen harm reduction efforts by identifying what works, for whom, and under what conditions. Panellists will introduce core principles of outcomes measurement, its integration with gambling harm assessments, and practical methodologies used across jurisdictions.
Through case studies and applied examples, participants will gain insights into how evaluation can inform policy, improve practice, and support shared progress toward safer gambling goals.
