Climate change poses a significant and growing threat to communities worldwide, with its impacts affecting everything from infrastructure and health to food security and biodiversity. As extreme weather events and rising sea levels become more frequent, the need for social resilience has never been more urgent. Social resilience refers to the ability of communities to adapt, recover, and thrive in the face of environmental, economic, or social challenges. This article explores the concept of social resilience in the context of climate change, examining the strategies that communities around the world are employing to build adaptive capacity and reduce vulnerability. Through a discussion of community-based adaptation strategies, local leadership, and sustainable practices, the article emphasizes the importance of social resilience in ensuring that communities not only survive but flourish in the face of climate change. The article also highlights key challenges, such as resource limitations, inequality, and political will, that need to be addressed to foster long-term social resilience
