An LLM or JD for Europe?

I'm a canadian student who's about to graduate and have no idea what degree I should get next. Ideally, I would like to go to Europe and stay there. My HBA is in International Relations and I want to work in Human Rights groups. Should I go for a JD or an LLM? The LLMs so far sound a lot better because they're a lot more specific and Europe doesn't offer any JDs. But, I can't help but feeling like I'm missing something since the JD is 3 yrs and the LLM is only one. Which one is better?
