| | + | == Country Information - Mozambique == |
| | + | The '''Republic of Mozambique''' is located on the south-eastern coast of Africa and has a surface area of 801,590 square kilometres. It is bordered by South Africa, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania, and separated by the Indian Ocean from Madagascar. The country is divided into ten provinces, and a provincial capital city.

| − | To better understand the ways energypedia is used by the energypedia community as well as to know their level of satisfaction, we recently conducted our first '''''energypedia user survey.''''' This survey was launched on 30th June 2015 and closed on 13th July 2015. A survey link was included on our [[Main Page|website]], sent via emails to all our registered users as well as spread via our communication channels such as [http://us6.campaign-archive2.com/home/?u=7d5e258983a431f62b11afbf6&id=11e4253c8d newsletter], [https://www.facebook.com/energypediawiki Facebook], [https://twitter.com/energypedia Twitter] and [https://www.linkedin.com/company/energypedia LinkedIn].<br/>

| − | According to the survey, most of our respondents are satisfied with energypedia and regularly use energypedia to keep themselves updated about renewable energy topics. However, we also learnt that most of our respondents are not familiar with many of our features like adding jobs, writing articles and so on. In addition, we also received some constructive feedback on further improving <span style="color:#FF0000">our plan(?)</span>. <span style="font-size: 13.6000003814697px; line-height: 20.4000015258789px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">We will take into consideration all the suggestions mentioned in the survey and will incooperate them whenever possible in our future strategies.</span><br/>
