Abstract
The percentage of poor people in Semarang City was 21.52%. Spatially, the poor are many in the coastal areas of Semarang City such as in North Semarang District, Tugu District and West Semarang District. Climate change has caused sea level rise in the Coastal Area of Semarang City. Based on the results of the analysis of the poor in the coastal area of Semarang City, it can be said that various mitigation efforts carried out on the population in coastal areas by the government in the form of increasing public infrastructure such as repairing housing, roads, drainage and clean water supply (Aspects of Response Capacity) combined with training to increase the understanding and knowledge of the community on disasters (the Adaptive Capacity Aspect) and and also the high social capital of the community; it can increase the resilience of the poor due to the effects of climate change (especially rob and flood).
