A local charity is challenging people to live on less than one pound worth of food a day for a week.
The One World Centre is encouraging Manx residents to take part in the Live Below The Line initiative.
It hopes the challenge will allow others to see how hard it is for 1.2 billion people across the world who live below the poverty line.
Infrastructure Minister Phil Gawne will be taking part for the fifth year in a row and says it's an eye-opening experience:
