The purpose of this study was to validate a theoretical proposal to analyze the correlation between information and communication technology (ICT) practices in an organizational structure and their impact on achieving human development in youth. In this text, the authors review the theories of culture in organizations and the structural perspective of technology. Moreover, based on these, a theoretical model is proposed to guide the methodology used. This consisted of estimating a structural equation model applied to the database of a survey carried out in 2016 to 204 Mexican government and civil society organizations oriented to support young people's development. The findings showed that the variables institutional capacity, ICT practices for searching information and internal communication achieved a significant impact on their scope and capacity to attend the human development of youth population.
