partnership between both entities.
The "One Humanity ID" initiative encourages
global citizens to voice their support for "One Humanity World," a
revolutionary global architecture designed to prioritize
individuals within the international system. As we transition into
the era of artificial intelligence, the creation of a global
framework that enables individuals to feel secure and exercise
their potential is crucial. This new global structure is anchored
on the fundamental tenets of Human Rights. Membership in the "One
Humanity ID" platform not only expands collective power but turns
our aspirations into reality, making it pivotal for the creation of
a peaceful world fueled by creativity and cooperation.
WISeID is an avant-garde solution to identity
protection for individuals and corporations, ensuring secure online
interactions. This digital identity secures email communication,
lends legal validity to digitally signed documents, and is enhanced
with dual-factor authentication and single sign-on features. Rooted
in the WISeKey/OISTE Trust, WISeID leverages blockchain
technologies to distribute identity attributes and construct
federated ecosystems. Furthermore, WISeID supports online KYC
onboarding, OTP, and a "hands-free" secure login using QR-Codes via
the "My WISeID" mobile application, negating the need to type
passwords. It also offers digital signature services for documents
and adheres to OpenID Connect and OAUTH2 standards, enabling easy
integration for enhancing cloud application security.
WISeID is available as a web service through the
WISeID.com trust services portal. Here, individuals can create
their digital identities and instantly access benefits, while
corporations can extend digital identities to their employees or
customers through managed identity services. Moreover, wiseid.com
allows corporations to integrate WISeID accounts into their
websites and applications, benefiting from robust authentication
and digital signature services.

WISe.ART Entrusted NFT Platform is joining forces with the ONUART
Foundation, becoming its official NFT marketplace. It will mint an
NFT commemorating the opening of the Human Rights Concert at The
Human Rights Hall in its 2022 editions.
Proceeds from the NFT, which captures the
opening of the Human Rights Concert at the United Nations will be
allocated by the ONUART Foundation to support arts education in
African schools, fostering the creative talent of upcoming
generations.
Ambassador Juan Antonio March, President of the
ONUART Foundation, said, "The Human Rights concert, held at the
Human Rights Hall at the United Nations, has been a world-renowned
event from 2014 to 2022."
Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeKey,
added, "WISeKey and the OISTE Foundation are honored to be a part
of such initiatives and aid in democratizing access to a digital

About ONUART Foundation
The creation of ONUART was promoted by the
Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, with the
support of private and public partners, as a result of the visit to
Geneva by Their Majesties King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofía in March
2005. During this visit, United Nations asked Spain to make an
artistic contribution to the Palais des Nations of Geneva. Thus was
resumed an old and brilliant tradition of collaboration between
Spain and multilateral fora, the first exponent of which is the
Council Chamber of the former League of Nations, donated by Spain
in 1936 and illuminated by the murals of José María Sert.
On 28 February 2007, the Minister of Foreign
Affairs and Cooperation and the Director-General of the United
Nations Office in Geneva signed a Memorandum of Understanding in
Madrid to establish the terms and conditions of the comprehensive
refurbishment project, to be undertaken by Spain, of Room XX of the
Palais – which would later be renamed the Human Rights and Alliance
of Civilisations Room. In addition to refurbishing Room XX, Spain
undertook to donate a major artistic work to United Nations, which
would be incorporated into the vast 1000-m2 ellipsoid cupola of
this Room. The work would be created by a Spanish contemporary
artist.
Between June and October 2006, the ad-hoc
Advisory Commission created by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and
Cooperation analysed several proposals submitted by some of our
country’s major artists. The shortlisted works were: “La Huella del
Hombre” (Man’s Imprint) by Manuel Valdés, “El Proyecto Orgánico”
(The Organic Project) by Miquel Barceló, “La Radiografía del Dolor”
(Radiograph of Pain) by José María Sicilia and “La Esencialidad”
(Essentiality) by Frederic Amat. On 16 November 2006 the Advisory
Committee took the decision to award the commission to Miquel
Barceló and his “Organic Project”. This ambitious project would be
developed by the ONUART Foundation.
