what are your objectives?

the imc-uk newswire is a platform for news from the streets and social movements, not a research tool. Although the editorial guidelines are used in a flexible way, it may be possible that your posting will be hidden.
You may be able to get support from imc activists if you would answer a few questions:
What are the objectives of the research? Where can I read the research proposal? Which methodology are you using? What is your theoretical framework? Which questions are you attempting to discuss in your research? Where are the results going to be published? Who is funding the project?
The questionnaire looks pretty much like a market research project. Did Oxford Indymedia or any other indymedia team commission you to carry out this study? Have you approached your local independent media center first? Have you approached any other imc lists?
Are you targeting only imc oxford, or other imcs as well? Why did you choose these particular imc/imcs?
Do you consider any ways in which your study might benefit the imc network?

Indymedia Netherlands therefore decided not be turned into a research object like this. Our reply (in dutch and english) has also been sent to imc-europe
