No, it's different.
"Minimum wage" refers to the lowest amount employers are allowed to pay employees for doing a job. "Unconditional basic wage", as used here, refers to the government paying a certain amount to everyone regardless of whether they work. It sometimes goes under the name "Citizen's income".
