We discuss the importance of multiwavelength (optical, infrared, millimetre, and radio), high angular resolution (arcsec to subarcsec) observations in studying star and planet formation. We provide a few illustrative examples, and briefly discuss how future observational facilities will allow a yet more detailed view of the important processes at work.
