The Hate Speech Detection (HaSpeeDe 2) task is the second edition of a shared task on the detection of hateful content in Italian Twitter messages. HaSpeeDe 2 is composed of a Main task (hate speech detection) and two Pilot tasks, (stereotype and nominal utterance detection). Systems were challenged along two dimensions: (i) time, with test data coming from a different time period than the training data, and (ii) domain, with test data coming from the news domain (i.e., news headlines). Overall, 14 teams participated in the Main task, the best systems achieved a macro F1-score of 0.8088 and 0.7744 on the in-domain in the out-of-domain test sets, respectively; 6 teams submitted their results for Pilot task 1 (stereotype detection), the best systems achieved a macro F1-score of 0.7719 and 0.7203 on in-domain and out-of-domain test sets. We did not receive any submission for Pilot task 2.

Abstract
The Hate Speech Detection (HaSpeeDe 2) task is the second edition of a shared task on the detection of hateful content in Italian Twitter messages. HaSpeeDe 2 is composed of a Main task (hate speech detection) and two Pilot tasks, (stereotype and nominal utterance detection). Systems were challenged along two dimensions: (i) time, with test data coming from a different time period than the training data, and (ii) domain, with test data coming from the news domain (i.e., news headlines). Overall, 14 teams participated in the Main task, the best systems achieved a macro F1-score of 0.8088 and 0.7744 on the in-domain in the out-of-domain test sets, respectively; 6 teams submitted their results for Pilot task 1 (stereotype detection), the best systems achieved a macro F1-score of 0.7719 and 0.7203 on in-domain and out-of-domain test sets. We did not receive any submission for Pilot task 2.
