Great analysis. I like that you have subdivided the rights holders, so you get the different types of women described. This will enable you to consider how you can target alle three types of rights holders (if you chose to target all three).
You might want to ba as specific (with subdivision) in your analysis of what you call "Government authorithies". This would make it more easy to design eg. advocacy intiatives (if you know 'local authorithies' in more detail).
I like yu consider INGO and CSOs as duty bearers. INGO can have duties as authorithies ca.
