This partnership has led to several significant projects that merge technology, art, and the pursuit of global peace.
In October 2022, during the ONUART #OneHumanity event at the United Nations' Palais des Nations in Geneva, the OISTE.ORG Foundation and WISe.ART minted a Non-Fungible Token (NFT) created with artificial intelligence. This NFT captured a lyrical performance by renowned tenor Jonas Kaufmann, accompanied by pianist Helmut Deutsch. The event highlighted the role of AI in art and its potential to foster dialogue and understanding among cultures.
In December 2022, the ONUART Foundation and the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) launched the "One Humanity ID" project, a digital identity platform developed by WISeKey. This platform empowers global citizens to support the "One Humanity World," aiming to place individuals at the center of the international system. It also facilitates initiatives related to the trade of NFT art pieces and other human interactions, promoting creativity and cooperation worldwide.
Additionally, WISe.ART, in collaboration with the ONUART Foundation, minted NFTs of Jonas Kaufmann's recital during the United Nations "One Humanity Concert" at the ONUART Gala in Geneva on December 10, 2022. This initiative aimed to support arts education in African schools, fostering the creative talents of the new generation.
In 2023, WISe.ART, OISTE and ONUART selected two Geneva based artist collaboratives to create the first numeric art pieces ever donated to the United Nations Headquarters in Geneva in celebration of the 75th Anniversary of the Human Rights Charter. The pieces represented the 196 signatories to the Human Rights Charter and their respective languages symbolising unity, respect and bridge building between nations. Two unique NFTs and 196 fragments of the works of art were on sale to raise funds for education. The artists Hervé Graumann, Boris Rabusseau and RVIG, worked under the name One Humanity, mission statement for the 2023 ONUART programme. In addition, an important delegation from China presented one of the longest murals created on papyrus paper followed by a concert featuring sopranos Pretty Yende and Nadine Sierra under the direction of Pablo Mielgo.
Through these initiatives, WISeKey, WISe.ART, and the ONUART Foundation have provided many artists with a platform to express themselves digitally, leveraging advanced technologies to promote global peace and understanding under the #DeepTechForPeace banner: https://platform.wise.art/

About ONUART Foundation
The ONUART Foundation was born in 2007 led by the conviction of the strength of Art to build a more humane and inclusive world. And in a global world where International Organizations must ensure the coexistence, stability and progress of all humanity, above the interests and tensions of nations, Art has to be very present to remind humanity of what great it can be.
The Human Rights and Alliance of Civilizations Chamber with the dome decorated by artist Miquel Barceló constitutes the greatest work of art present in a meeting room of the United Nations and in this case its omnipresent character leads it to preside with its beauty and strength the intellectual work of the delegates. Art, we could say, has entered the United Nations with greatness through this Chamber, and the Onuart Foundation is proud to have started a new path that we think should be explored in depth.
Established in 2007 as a public-private partnership by participating in its creation a large group of private companies, cultural institutions and the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Foundation has a vocation for universality. If the idea, the capital, and the initial effort was Spanish, his first work already had a universal vocation: to anchor at the headquarters of humanity, the United Nations, a living work of art for the pride and benefit of all. The future is also very present in the activity of the Foundation, so we are preparing to organize in 2025, in this iconic room of the United Nations, a great meeting with The United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) to discuss the relationship between human intelligence and intelligence artificial, field in which the new humanism will be outlined in the 21st century.
The Foundation is now open to all countries and people. It wants to be a living instrument to promote innovative ideas and projects with international significance. We want to generate dynamic art and thought that opens new horizons, which lead us to feel proud of our creative strength and our potential for understanding.
