Abstract
This study aims to conduct a systematic review on human rights as related to mega-events (MEs) to locate possible key areas and gaps for further research in the field. A systematic literature review has been undertaken utilizing the databases of Scopus, Web of Sciences, and Google Scholar. A final sample of 127 articles was used for this review exercise. Findings resulted in past research studies classified into six groups and 18 topics for recommending for future research. The findings contribute to theory by identifying and underlining the key areas and research gaps for orientating further studies such as discovering some new phenomena which may elicit relevant research interests. The findings also contribute practically by urging the relevant policy and practice actors to actively seek out the stakeholders entailed in a mega event to minimize its possible adverse effects on the stakeholders.
