      <video:title><![CDATA[Correct The Map: resetting global view of Africa]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Following the African Union’s endorsement of “Correct The Map” Initiative last year, there are growing push backs against outdated portrayals of Africa on the world map. The move goes beyond cartography seeking to correct long-standing misconceptions that have influenced trade, investment flows, and Africa’s role in global decision-making. Carlos Lopes, Professor at the Nelson Mandela School of Public Governance, Carlos Lopes, says maps shape how power, importance and possibility are imagined while noting that African children are taught geography using a map that visually diminishes their own continent. He joins CNBC Africa for more on the road ahead in resetting the global view of Africa. ]]></video:description>
