The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from the fields of computational argumentation, Logic Programming (LP) and eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI). We specifically seek contributions that present formal work on argumentative explainability,
as well as argumentative approaches that explain the behaviour of intelligent systems (argumentation for XAI). Topics include, but are not limited to:</span></p>
