Overview

Could you live on $2.25 a day? That's what participants in this year's 5 day Live Below the Line challenge have been doing this week in a bid to raise awareness of global poverty. The official wrap up party features spoken ­word poetry which will salivate your minds.

Poets Below the Line is a creative collaboration, mining poets from all over our local scene to make global poverty speak. Some come from youth ­project Rising Voices, others from acclaimed performers South Auckland Poets Collective, more from performance poetry collective The Literatti and others are fiercely independent voices.

They are all united by a single mantra; to embody a creative response to the global poverty crisis. This is the pen under duress. This is the cortex under pressure. This is poetry below the line.
