DESCRIPTION:Primordial Black Holes might comprise a significant fraction o
 f dark matter in the Universe and can give rise to observable signatures a
 t current and future gravitational wave experiments. First\, we review the
  PBH model and discuss how accretion and clustering may affect the propert
 ies of PBH binaries. Second\, we confront the PBH model with LIGO/Virgo da
 ta showing its upsides and shortcomings\, by also including state-of-the-a
 rt astrophysical models in a multi-population inference. Finally\, we disc
 uss how 3G detectors\, such as Einstein Telescope and Cosmic Explorer\, ma
 y be able to discover a PBH population by searching for high redshift merg
 er events.
