Winds and outflows powered by the release of gravitational potential energy of infalling matter have been invoked as the triggering agent for further star-formation on scales from dwarf galaxies to individual, low-mass stars. This brief review will touch upon the circumstances under which outflows can serve as star-formation triggers, from specific observations of present-day, nearby protostellar flows.
