<![CDATA[. The operational readiness of the Indonesian Navy is influenced not only by the readiness of defense equipment and maritime threat detection capabilities, but also by the health conditions of personnel performing duties at sea. The development of Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) has primarily focused on integrating information related to maritime objects, activities, and threats, while personnel health has received limited attention as an integrated element of maritime awareness. This study aims to analyze a strategy for developing Maritime Health Awareness (MHA) as part of MDA to support the operational readiness of the Indonesian Navy. This study employed a qualitative approach involving 10 informants with expertise and responsibilities related to operations, health services, information systems, planning, and policy. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation and analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model. The findings indicate that personnel health conditions influence operational readiness, while the use of health data as information to support operational decision-making remains limited. MHA development should focus on integrating health data with MDA systems, improving technological interoperability, strengthening human resource competencies, monitoring health risks, and enhancing medical support coordination. MHA can strengthen situational awareness and support sustained personnel readiness during maritime operations.]]>
