"Africa is Bigger Than You Think "

For decades, the Mercator map — the one most of us saw in school — has distorted reality. It shrinks Africa while inflating Europe and North America. On those maps, Greenland appears larger than Africa, when in fact Africa is 14 times larger.

This isn’t just cartography — it’s about perception, power, and history. When Africa is shown as smaller, its importance is downplayed. Correcting the map means correcting the narrative.

Africa is vast, dynamic, and central to the future of our planet — the map should reflect that truth.
Campaigners and the African Union are pushing for the Equal Earth projection, a map that finally shows Africa’s true scale.

Diene Keita → New UNFPA Executive Director
🌍 Champion of Women, Youth & Equality

Diene Keita, a trailblazing diplomat from Guinea, has been officially appointed as the Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).
She takes over from Natalia Kanem after serving in an acting role since July.

With more than 30 years of experience, Keita has led UNFPA programmes in Nigeria, DR Congo, Benin, and Mauritania, and even served as Guinea’s Minister for Cooperation and African Integration.
Her career has been dedicated to promoting women’s empowerment, enhancing youth opportunities, advancing reproductive health, and promoting gender equality.

🎓 She holds a doctorate in Law from the Sorbonne, speaks English, French and Italian, and has received national honours in Mauritania and Benin.

Her appointment places her alongside global leaders like Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of WHO—showcasing the rising role of African leadership at the UN.

At a time when women’s rights and reproductive health face serious challenges, her leadership at UNFPA comes with both urgency and hope. 💡
