Social projects for oil companies
OK, this is from a Mexican oil regulatory agency regarding social projects to be provided by oil companies. I have included the actual definition of the term within the document. I don't know if "license" or "certificate" are the most appropriate terms here, but am willing to go with one of those if you all think one of those fits. "Cédula" can be such an amorphous term sometimes...

schedule
When in doubt, I tend to go with literal translations in the Mexican oil industry, as there is often a close relation to US terminology.
schedule
NOUN
1A plan for carrying out a process or procedure, giving lists of intended events and times.
‘we have drawn up an engineering schedule’
...
Law
An appendix to a formal document or statute, especially as a list, table, or inventory.
‘they need a clear schedule of fixtures and fittings’

Your schedule is the control center of your project and helps direct all progress. Ensuring you’ve considered all activities and milestones in your schedule is key to ensuring project success. One key project management process that can supply additional insights to your schedule and help broaden overall project transparency is interface management.

statute
By your description, "cédula" is used as a formal document that provides general information about the program, which gives it a closer meaning to the following synonyms (in Spanish):
código, regla, carta, precepto, edicto, cédula, decreto, constitución
Based on that, my choice (even though I am not a native speaker) would be "regulations", "charter" or "statute".
