Human rights in esports is a new area within the esports society. To establish sustainable esports ecosystem, the esports society grows up economic interests for those who are involved in this industry. At the same time, it also takes necessary measures to prevent negative consequences, such as toxic behaviours, physical and mental health problems, gender inequality, discrimination, hate speech and other related challenges caused by esports activities. Against this background, the purpose of this issue is to consider how to strike a balance between the interests of individuals who works for the esports industry and those of esports society as a whole in accordance with internationally recognised human rights law. This topic overlaps with the topic of the safeguarding in esports, but this subject is to provide an objective justification with esports stakeholders to dedicate their time and resource for this topic.
