The idea of integrating symbolic and sub-symbolic approaches to make intelligent systems understandable and explainable is at the core of new fields such as neuro-symbolic computing. Neural-symbolic computing aims to integrate two most fundamental cognitive abilities: the ability to learn from the environment and reason from what has been learned. Neural-symbolic computing reconciles the advantages of robust learning in neural networks and reasoning and interpretability of symbolic representation, enabling explainability via symbolic representations for network models. The topics of interest include but are not limited to: 
   • Probabilistic methods for explainability with Neural Networks
   • Enabling explanations with Computing Logic Programs with Neural Networks 
   • Learning Logic Programs for explainable AI systems
   • Enabling explanations with Neurosymbolic Logic Programming 
   • Enabling explanations with Nonmonotonic Reasoning and Learning
   • Machine Learning for Theorem Proving
   • Abductive Logic Programming and Learning for XAI
   • Learning Answer Set Programs for XAI
   • Interpretability and Explainability via symbolic knowledge extraction and injection from/to opaque models
   • Enabling explanations with Inductive logic programming
   • Explainable planning
