Recent developments in Astroparticle Physics have begun to revolutionize our view of the most energetic processes in the present Universe. From TeV gamma-rays, to ZeV cosmic rays, the high energy frontier is beginning to probe particle interactions at the highest energies while the most energetic cosmic accelerators become directly observable. The implications of these new findings for particle physics and astrophysics are only starting to become clear. A new era of multi-messenger particle astronomy is dawning, opening a new window to the Universe. The time is right for experimenters and theorists to examine the state of the field.

The program includes plenary sessions by invited speakers summarizing the state of the art in high-energy astroparticle physics. Afternoon workshops offer the opportunity to contribute your own views and results in an open and inspiring atmosphere. A panel discussion on future physics goals and next-generation instruments will be the highlight of the symposium.

 We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics (KICP) and the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC) that sponsor the panel discussion.
