The UN General Assembly has adopted a resolution supporting a more accurate and equitable representation of the world on maps, with particular emphasis on Africa. The “Correct the Map” resolution passed by a vote of 164 in favor, one against and six abstentions. Togo led the initiative, arguing that commonly used map projections can distort perceptions of Africa’s true size and global place.

Led by Togo and backed by the African Union, the initiative promotes the Equal Earth projection as an alternative to the centuries-old Mercator map, which makes Africa appear far smaller than its actual size.
