What is Refugees into Work - Niederrhein?

Refugees into Work - Niederrhein is a project that promotes the labor market integration and employability of refugees in Oberhausen and the district of Wesel. The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs and the European Union through the European Social Fund Plus (ESF Plus).

The project participants are supported in completing or catching up on their education (school, academic) and are accompanied in the transition between school, training or study and work.
