My academic background is in Management and HRM (BA and MSc) and I was a research assistant.

I want to explore more the area of human rights through a PhD and work in academia.

So, a better research area would be around human rights in business or in e-participation?

Could I explore the area of e-participation considering my academic background?

Thank you.

I'd have thought you would need a Human Rights / Law background to do a PhD in human rights? Check out some departments and contact some potential supervisors.
