contents Retention of Civil Organizations Members and Political Participation: Possible Relationships Dias Rafael Magul Carlos Eduardo Cavalcante Administración y Contabilidad Mozambique member retention Political engagement political participation civil society organizations Objective: to explore the influence of retention of civil society organizations (CSOs) members on political participation. Theoretical framework: members of CSOs are likely to engage in various political activities. The propensity of members to participate in political practices may be influenced by their retention, which enables the development of democratic competencies and values, civic skills and virtues, and other political resources that foster political engagement. Methods: an explanatory quantitative research was carried out, using data from 234 members of CSOs in Mozambique, collected through a questionnaire consisting of validated scales of members’ retention and political participation. Structural equation modeling was performed to test the five research hypotheses, using weighted least squares mean and variance adjusted (WLSMV) as the estimation method, considering member retention practices as a second-order construct to explain each of the dimensions of political participation. Results: The hypothesis testing pointed to the non-rejection of two hypotheses, demonstrating that: member retention practices significantly explain political contact; and member retention practices significantly explain civic engagement. Conclusion: the study demonstrates that the propensity of CSOs members to participate in various political practices can be explained by member retention, which adds value to the literature. The findings contribute to human resource management in CSOs seeking to foster individual capacity to participate in democratic political processes, as well as those aiming to promote the expansion of democracy in society. 2024 artículo científico 1415-6555 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=84079804002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84079804002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84079804002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84079804002/84079804002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84079804002/movil 10.1590/1982-7849rac2024240041.en en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=840 RAC - Revista de Administração Contemporânea application/pdf Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Administração RAC - Revista de Administração Contemporânea (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.28
