  Understanding the few-nucleon system remains one of the challenges in modern
nuclear and hadron physics. Observables in few-nucleon scattering processes are
sensitive probes to study the two and many-body interactions between nucleons
in nuclei. In the past decades, several facilities provided a large data base
to study in detail the three-nucleon interactions below the pion-production
threshold by exploiting polarized proton and deuteron beams and
large-acceptance detectors. Only since recently, the four-nucleon scattering
process at intermediate energies has been explored. In addition, there is a
focus to collect data in the hyperon-nucleon sector, thereby providing access
to understand the more general baryon-baryon interaction. In this contribution,
some recent results in the few-nucleon sector are discussed together with some
of the preliminary results from a pioneering and exclusive study of the
four-nucleon scattering process. Furthermore, this paper discusses the
experimental activities in the hyperon sector, in particular, the perspectives
of the hyperon program of PANDA.
