Gambling Research Australia

About Gambling Research Australia

This program was a partnership between the Australian and state and territory governments. Its aim was to initiate and manage a national gambling research program.

Under Gambling Research Australia, 30 gambling studies were published between 2007 and 2024.

The latest research program was established through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Australian Government and all state and territory governments. The program ran from 2018 to June 2024.

The website was decommissioned on 1 November 2025. All published reports can be accessed on the National Library of Australia’s Australian Web Archive(Opens external website).
