Description
In this talk, I will review the observational properties of magnetic fields in our Galaxy -- in particular in the Galactic halo -- and in the intergalactic medium.
I will lay the emphasis on the properties that are relevant to the propagation of UHECRs, namely, the strength and the overall topology of the magnetic field.
I will discuss how these properties fit in with the basic predictions of dynamo theory.
