Abstract
This paper is a condensed report on the second year of the Touché shared task on argument retrieval held at CLEF 2021. With the goal to provide a collaborative platform for researchers, we organized two tasks: (1) supporting individuals in finding arguments on controversial topics of social importance and (2) supporting individuals with arguments in personal everyday comparison situations.
