A large audience sits closely together in a bright auditorium with wooden tiered seating. Many people wear conference badges on lanyards and appear reflective, some with eyes closed as if listening intently or participating in a quiet moment. The crowd is diverse in age and gender. White overlaid text across the image reads: “at the heart: love letters to culture.”

A large group of people gather on a rooftop terrace at sunset, socialising and talking in small clusters. The setting features greenery, café awnings, and historic buildings with domes and a tall tower in the background. The light is warm and golden. White overlaid text across the image reads: “at the heart: love letters to culture.”

“In this part of the world, we have learned to build you with care. Not because it is easy, but because it is necessary.” Read today’s love letter from Istanbul.

A group of around fifteen people gather outdoors under leafy trees on a city street. A woman gestures while speaking to the group, who listen attentively; several hold smartphones. One older woman crouches near a wooden bench, appearing to examine or adjust something at its base. The setting includes palm trees, parked cars, pastel-coloured buildings, and street signs in the background. White overlaid text across the image reads: “at the heart: love letters to culture.”

“Care means establishing rules, frameworks, and conditions that allow us to live with dignity.” Read today’s love letter from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
