Everyone has the right to speak but what right to be heard?

I've never heard of a law that enshrines the right to be heard.

There are many situations that require listening:
salespeople needing to know what the customer wants,
translators of languages,
journalists interviewing,
students at lectures and in tutorials,
government inquiries which examine the witnesses,
courts which hear evidence,
peacemakers trying to negotiate solutions,
psychologists paying attention to clients' experiences and needs,
communications specialists teaching the skills of listening.

If we humans were smarter, we would talk less and listen more.

As I think about it, it's hard to imagine how The Right to Be Heard would be enshrined.
How would it be phrased?
What institutions and laws would protect it?
Would the skills of listening become part of the education system,
and integrated by writers into our diet of stories?
Would religions change?

But I think it's a great idea.
And maybe it starts here... This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at January 12, 2018 11:07 PM MST

Your mouth is yours but someone's ears can't be yours;))

Did you say something?

The only time I can think of a right to be heard is a defendant's right to question his accuser and a right to testify in his trial.  That is all that comes to mind right now.  But I'm quite tired.  Maybe I'll add something else later.
