Gamingkontakten
Wilstar entered into a partnership with Gamingkontakten in 2020. Gamingkontakten aims to prevent the societal exclusion of children and youths through what many view as the problem as opposed to the solution to this problem, gaming. Gamingkontakten believes that it is necessary to educate adults who work with children and young people in the positive opportunities that lie in the gaming arena.
