#3of3HN
The citizen initiative ?#3de3HN? (Span. Tres de Tres Honduras) was launched on September 6, 2017, by the Association for a Fairer Society (Span. Asociación para una Sociedad más Justa, ASJ) with the aim of incentivizing candidates of popular election to voluntarily make public three declarations: patrimony, interests and fiscal matters. This initiative took as example the Mexican experience known as ?Law 3 of 3? promoted by Mexican Transparency. Unlike the Mexican case, the initiative in Honduras was not presented to the National Congress but focused on the implementation of ?tours? in which citizen representatives of the initiative would personally visit the candidates to convince and invite them to join ?#3de3HN? and publish their declarations, fostering transparency and accountability. Additionally, the initiative implemented a web page in which citizens could search and access candidates? declarations. Likewise, the web portal allowed candidates to upload their declarations. During the first three months after its implementation, 125 candidates (from the 3,900 popular electoral posts) shared their declarations.
