Live Below the Line is a call to action to reimagine an equitable world and do things differently.
How do YOU imagine ‘living below the line’ to create a more just and sustainable world?
We have created five lines: Energy, Food, Shelter, Technology and Waste. You can choose to focus on one, or as many as you like. We have provided some examples below for challenge week inspiration.

Energy
Flick that light switch and:
- enforce a daily power outage in your home
- divest your superannuation from coal and gas
- use public transport
- wash your clothes by hand

Food
Your tummy is rumbling:
- go plant-based
- support a food bank
- cook lunch for others at school or work
- community garden excursion

Shelter
Look at the roof over your head and:
- write to council about hostile architecture
- give up furniture and bedding
- volunteer with a homelessness organisation
- sleep in a tent with only blankets and a torch

Technology
Put your phone down and:
- donate old devices for recycling
- donate your extra mobile data
- give up elective activities such as Netflix
- use social media to advocate

Waste
No time to waste:
- make a compost bin
- have water bucket showers
- avoid plastic at the supermarket
- host a beach clean up
