  abstract = {{C}oastal erosion is a significant global threat to coastal communities, ecosystems, and infrastructure. {D}espite various global coastal management strategies and policies and the best efforts to combat coastal erosion, challenges persist. {T}his study reviews global literature on coastal erosion management strategies, highlighting lessons learned and challenges encountered in implementation from past experiences. {F}indings indicate that global coastal erosion is increasing, with seawalls and hard engineering declining and nature-based solutions and ecological engineering being developed. {H}owever, balancing coastal protection with environmental and socioeconomic impacts remains a global challenge, as static coastal protections struggle to adapt to dynamic climate change scenarios. {T}hus, rising sea levels and other causes of coastal erosion should be prioritized alongside holistic coastal management approaches that consider recession, land use, infrastructure, community well-being, and resilience. {T}his study underscores the need collaborative efforts among stakeholders to develop sustainable coastal protection solutions to address rising sea levels and coastal erosion.},
