This study focused on people in the Ruhr Valley with low qualifications, meaning those with at most a lower secondary qualification who experience a high risk of poverty and social exclusion, and explored green job opportunities that exist for them, including those that would require reskilling (training to obtain different skills) or upskilling (training to obtain more advanced skills). In this study (unless stated otherwise), green jobs are understood as jobs in businesses that produce goods or provide services that benefit the environment or conserve natural resources, and green skills denote skills needed to adapt products, services and processes to climate change and the related environmental requirements and regulations. Evidence presented here includes national-level data (where regional and local information was not available) and focuses on data specific to green jobs or people with low qualifications. In the Ruhr Valley, the green economy is a fast-growing sector, accelerated by the move away from coal and other traditional industries. Jobs in manual labour, such as those taken by electricians or people working with machinery, are the most common entry points for people with low or no qualifications into the green economy. Many initiatives in the Ruhr Valley are closely tied to the existing structures of the German education and employment system. Apprenticeship programmes and measures supported by the employment agency are the main source of training and education to enable people from vulnerable groups to find work in the green sector.
