This research introduces the inaugural large-scale endeavor for indigenous reference charts. Through the noted distinctions from the international reference, the utilization of this novel resource offers the potential to enhance the surveillance of children's growth within the area. Moreover, by accurately assessing growth anomalies such as underweight, stunting, and wasting, it expands the domain of impactful policies in this sphere. Simultaneously, it enables the exploration of the secular trend of children's growth in the forthcoming years.
