Description
AGN are believed to be potential sites of ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic ray acceleration. I will highlight observational findings as well as requirements on source energetics, and then discuss the relevance of different acceleration sites and mechanisms, such as black hole gap or large-scale jet shear acceleration.
