'Multi-messenger astronomy' describes the complementarity of measurements of charged particles, gamma-rays and neutrinos in understanding how cosmic accelerators work. There are several major new experiments in various stages of operation, construction and planning in these fields which relate to the origin of high-energy cosmic rays. I will review some of the open questions and the status of efforts to answer them.
