Purpose
The Business and Human Rights Research Cluster seeks to foster collaborative interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research in the field of business and human rights. The cluster aims to examine the diverse range of interactions that can arise when business conduct affects human rights from a variety of perspectives. The membership is comprised of academics in disciplines including politics, law, management, accounting and finance, strategy and marketing, economics, anthropology, geography and international relations.
Background
The Business and Human Rights Research Cluster was established in its current form in September 2024. The cluster’s first activity was an online meeting in January 2025 with colleagues at the Business and Human Rights Project at the University of Essex. In May 2025, the cluster held its first funded workshop at the 黄色短视频.
Looking forward
The activities undertaken by the Business and Human Rights Research Cluster are driven by its members. We aim to work together to produce research outputs, prepare research funding bids and supervise PhD students. We are open to collaborating with academics based from all over the world.
