and Scope:</div><div>==============</div><div><br></div><div>The workshop aims to gather researchers interested in developing explainable approaches to artificial intelligence, in particular to explainable agency, learning, reasoning, and their intersections. </div><div>Participants are invited to submit papers addressing whichever phase of explainability (e.g., generation, communication, and reception) fostering transparency in autonomous agents and Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), robots, and other intelligent systems. </div><div>Compliance with such requirements is becoming necessary in most systems where agent-oriented approaches are increasingly employed. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Important Dates: </div><div>================</div><div><br></div><div>Deadline for
