                         Abstract of Invited Talk
                         This talk addresses the use of argumentation-based textual responses—referred to as counterspeech—to
                         combat online hate speech, an emerging topic in Natural Language Processing. Specifically, it explores
                         the automated generation of counterspeech as an effective strategy for intervening in harmful online
                         discourse. Following an overview of the field, various methodologies for collecting high-quality data and
                         effective generation strategies, including state-of-the-art LLMs, are discussed. The talk also examines
                         critical challenges at the intersection of online safety, argumentation strategies and the effectiveness of
                         NLP interventions.
