Climate change affects every region globally, but developing countries are often more severely affected due to insufficient capacity to respond to climate change, and support for these nations is urgently needed. Developed countries make efforts to expanding international development cooperation through official development assistance (ODA), but limitations exist in increasing the budget for international cooperation. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage the participation of the private sector in international cooperation. The goal of this study is to find ways to engage with the private sector for international cooperation. To that end, experts in the field of international cooperation were surveyed. The Delphi method was used to gather various opinions from experts. Results showed that the first priority to engage the private sector was ‘The financial support of the government for private sector participation in international development cooperation’. Ways to provide financial support included reducing corporate tax, providing subsidies, and allowing loans for private enterprises participating in international cooperation, among others. The second priority was ‘Providing consulting to private enterprises inexperienced in international cooperation’. The third priority was ‘Expanding public-private partnership’. The results presented in this study can be used as basic data for establishing policies and strategies for international development cooperation in developing countries.
