Thanks for your post. A good source of country-level GIS data on administrative areas is GADM (http://www.gadm.org/). You can download municipality shapefiles from there. The Humanitarian Response website is usually a good source as well https://cod.humanitarianresponse.info/country-region, but they do not seem to have any data on the municipalities of Honduras. Please note that boundary representations from public sources are not necessarily authoritative.

We advise caution when conducting your analysis at smaller administrative levels such as municipalities, since the surveys were not designed to be representative below the DHS regions level.

I hope this helps. Please reply if you have any further questions.
