We present the general properties of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) and
discuss the origin and structure of jets that are associated to a fraction of
these objects. We then we address the problems of particle acceleration at
highly relativistic energies and set limits on the luminosity of AGN jets for
being origin of UHECRs.
