Are you looking for a job? We are looking for reinforcements!

We have a spatial accessible office, a contact person for inclusion issues on the organising committee and are constantly working to remove barriers in everyday office life. If you have any questions about inclusion and accessibility, please contact inclusion@rhineruhr2025.com at any time.
