In this work we summarize the current status of global neutrino oscillation analyses in the three-neutrino framework. We first describe the different data samples included in the global fit, emphasizing the role of each of them in constraining a given set of parameters. Next, we discuss the main improvements obtained thanks to the consideration of the latest experimental data. The status of the yet-unknown parameters, such as the true neutrino mass ordering, the Dirac CP-violating phase and the octant of the atmospheric mixing angle is also commented. Finally, we discuss some scenarios where the measurement of the reactor mixing angle or the CP violation phase could be significantly affected by the presence of neutrino physics beyond the Standard Model.
