Abstract

This study explores how initiatives aimed at achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in South Malang's coastal communities relate to their level of tsunami preparedness. By combining findings from field studies and national and international literature reviews, the article demonstrates that community preparedness is influenced by institutional capacity, local knowledge and practices, and coastal ecosystem restoration initiatives, which are also relevant to SDG targets 11, SDG 13, and SDG 14. The case study in South Malang's coastal region shows that both physical and social vulnerabilities continue to be significant, even with local efforts to enhance readiness.; these findings are consistent with previous research on coastal population capacity by livelihood asset parameters and the KAP model (knowledge, attitude, practice) of coastal communities in Indonesia. The final recommendations emphasize the integration of SDG policies and local wisdom, strengthening community-based disaster education, and green infrastructure as strategies to increase tsunami resilience. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
