Yesterday GPP Global Advisor Hugh Jackman appeared on the Hamish & Andy show to promote the Global Poverty Project, and our involvement in the new poverty awareness campaign Live Below the Line!
Hugh spoke about our presentation 1.4 Billion Reasons, and appeared in a spoof of the Live Below the Line campaign.
Live Below the Line is an initiative of The Global Poverty Project and The Oaktree Foundation, which invites Australians to feed themselves with just $2 a day - the Australian equivalent of the international Extreme Poverty Line. It seeks to raise awareness of the challenges faced by people living in extreme poverty.
Live Below the Line co-founder and GPP's Australian General Manager Rich Fleming is currently on his 83rd day of the $2 a day challenge - with 1,400 Australians registered to join him in the challenge when it kicks off next Monday.
Hugh is promoting the campaign to support GPP’s Poverty Education Program in Australian schools. This Program sees specially trained presenters travelling to schools around the country to educate and inspire Australian students to become leaders in the global movement to end extreme poverty.
You can find out more information about our Poverty Education Program, or get your school involved, here.
