Coastal communities and impoverished people are identified as more vulnerable to climate change and other natural hazards. Sustainable development enhancement through disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) is necessary to reduce the risk of disaster occurrence and build coastal communities' resilience. However, despite the various efforts and progress taken on CCA and DRR, there is still a lack of focus, especially at the local level, where the disaster impacts are more pronounced, and policies should be translated into action. Prior research also identified that coastal communities should initiate decentralized actions on DRR and CCA to reduce vulnerabilities toward coastal hazard risk. Community-led initiatives are integral to CCA-DRR to strengthen resilience and contribute to better implementation in collaboration with local governments. Community-led CCA-DRR can be used to harness existing and build new community assets and capacity in order to address, manage, influence, and adapt to social, economic, and environmental change and disasters. Examples include appropriate recovery actions or mitigation for better coastal community resilience. This paper examines the implementation of community-led CCA-DRR in Indonesia as a case study through an extensive literature review of community-led approaches and CCA-DRR for coastal communities' resilience. This paper explores practical examples from the global context, draws lessons learned, and gives recommendations to enhance coastal community resilience in Indonesia. Existing experiences on integrated CCA-DRR in various countries demonstrate how a community-led approach can incorporate local community members, local government, external stakeholders, and appropriate support and funding mechanisms.
