The article presents examples of European-African cooperation in the field of geothermal energy, for which the foundation are: education, joint research and the transfer of professional skills. The article presents arguments for the fact that undertaking cooperation between European and African specialists in the field of geothermal energy, but also in various other areas of socio-economic life, may positively influence the economic development of poorer countries and, consequently, translate into improving the quality of their residents’ life. At present Europe is struggling with the huge problem of illegal migration from the South and East, including African countries. The process has been observed for months and even years; European politicians still cannot find a good solution. Since migration from Africa is most often economic, the medicine must be to support African countries in their efforts to improve the standard of living in these countries, for example by supporting them in seeking and gaining access to energy. UNU-GTP (United Nations University Geothermal Training Programme) in Iceland is a perfect example of the positive operation of a well-organized system of intercontinental education, transfer of knowledge and practical skills in the field of geothermal energy. Kenya is one of the beneficiaries of the training system in Iceland, and positive effects are visible on the national scale. Another example of cooperation with Africa is the academic bilateral cooperation between Polish and African universities supported by the Polish National Commission for UNESCO (e.g. cooperation between the University of Silesia (Poland) and Nigerian universities: Ahmadu Bello University (Zaria) and Bayero (Kano)). The effects to date are much less spectacular than in the case of Kenya, but positive and have been pointed and shortly described in this article.
