Coastal communities in the north of Java Island are one of the areas most vulnerable to climate change. They cannot work because of tidal flooding. Children’s education is disrupted because they cannot go to school. Damaged roads and building facilities cause a lack of public access in various ways. The vulnerability experienced by these communities causes social problems in the form of poverty in this area. Taking rapid action to adapt to these conditions is one of the global goals outlined in the Sustainable Development Agenda (SDGs). This article aims to describe the form of integrated resilience in the coastal communities north of Java Island (Indonesia) in adapting to climate change. The research method used is qualitative because it emphasizes the ideas and experiences of the community regarding adaptation to climate change. Data were obtained through interviews, observations, and focus group discussions (FGD). The locations of this research are Tangerang, DKI Jakarta, Cirebon, Demak, and Pasuruan. These locations represent all provinces in Java Island. The results of the study describe various forms of adaptation in multiple aspects of life, including Economic Vulnerability, Social Vulnerability, Educational Vulnerability, and Environmental Vulnerability. This condition requires an integrated resilience model in coastal communities as an adaptation strategy. In the long term, planting mangroves is very effective in dealing with abrasion. Some other adaptations are raising houses and building floating houses. © The Author(s).
