As part of the training process, the participants developed projects that reflected the knowledge they had acquired and offered real alternatives to improve financial inclusion for women in Honduras. These projects were evaluated by a specialized panel, considering criteria such as innovation, relevance, social impact, and sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under this category, 3 out of 26 projects stood out for significantly reflecting financial inclusion and a gender focus: \u201cTengo Contigo\u201d by the company Tengo, \u201cMicrocredit for Women Entrepreneurs\u201d by Banco Ficensa and Seguros Crefisa, and \u201cMicro Insurance: Secure Woman\u201d by the Female Business Development Organization Financial (ODEF) and Seguros Equidad. All these initiatives, with an innovative approach and gender mainstreaming, aim to include women who have been historically excluded in the supervised sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cnbs.gob.hn\/inclusion-financiera\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5613-copia-Grande.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3076\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cnbs.gob.hn\/inclusion-financiera\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5613-copia-Grande.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.cnbs.gob.hn\/inclusion-financiera\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5613-copia-Grande-768x283.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cnbs.gob.hn\/inclusion-financiera\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5613-copia-Grande-750x276.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cnbs.gob.hn\/inclusion-financiera\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5613-copia-Grande-1140x420.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width:767px) 480px, (max-width:1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the closing event was attended by the highest authorities of the organizing institutions: the Commissioner President of the CNBS, Eng.
