SUPPORTING RESEARCH

FDJ UNITED supports organisations carrying out research into gambling, while observing their strict independence

FDJ UNITED supports the work of the Institut Fédératif des Addictions Comportementales (Federal Institute of Behavioural Addictions) based at the Nantes general hospital.

FDJ UNITED participates in financing the scientific interest group “Jeu et Société” (Gaming and Society) (in partnership with the following universities: Paris 13, Paris Descartes, Paris Ouest-Nanterre La Défense, and Paris Sorbonne). The interest group carries out research and shares its findings and insights into the world of gambling.

FDJ UNITED supports two experimental projects focussing on reducing risk and damage. The first is spearheaded by the Fédération Addiction (Addiction Federation) and aims to bring FDJ’s core business and the medical profession closer together. It aims to facilitate the identification of addictive behaviours, prevent damage, and reduce risks. The second project is led by the Société d’Entraide et d’Action Psychologique (Society of Mutual Aid and Psychological Action) and is based on self-help and mutual assistance between gamers.
