The United Nations General Assembly has adopted a non-binding resolution with 164 votes in favor, encouraging the use of more accurate world maps that reflect Africa's true size instead of the traditional Mercator projection. Led by Togo and supported by the African Union, the resolution aims to promote cartographic representations that better depict global proportions, particularly for Africa, to enhance understanding and reduce misconceptions. This initiative, driven by campaigns like #CorrectTheMap, emphasizes that changing map projections is a scientific and educational effort to accurately portray the world's geography without altering political boundaries.
