This talk will present an overview of the compelling astrophysical and cosmological evidence that one quarter the mass of the Universe is of a completely new kind: Dark Matter. It remains however entirely unknown what constitutes Dark Matter. What we do know places some constraints and a few requirements on experimental searches for Dark Matter particles, which will be sketched out. Some particularly promising techniques and their status to tackle the identification of Dark Matter will also be described in this talk.
