This PhD thesis aimed to develop an approach to provide information to improve cetacean conservation management in Indonesia through suggestions for strengthening the governance and introduction of habitat-use-based spatial planning using complementary methods and underused data.We reviewed Indonesian marine mammal conservation governance, legal framework, institutional arrangement, and related policies. In the development of the legal framework regarding marine mammal governance, three different phases can be distinguished: 1970s following a species-centred approach, 1990s focussing on site-based approaches, and currently applying a wider marine management approach. There are currently 7 policies in place for marine mammal management in Indonesia. Some aspects of marine mammal conservations governance are missing, these include a legal basis regulating traditional whale hunting, a code of conduct for marine mammal tourism, standards for ex-situ conservation, and regulation of underwater noise pollution. Suggestions were provided to strengthen the current legal framework such as adapting institutional arrangements to remove functional overlaps and to solve unclear mandates and responsibility dualism.
