(key) areas
"Axes" can often be translated "areas" or "key areas", though "themes", "topics", "dimensions", etc. can all be good options… it's a case of picking what works best in a given context.
For "axes d'amélioration", I often use "areas for improvement".
For "la stratégie se base sur trois axes", one suggestion might be "The strategy is based on three key areas".

I added a second part later, didn't you see? For there is no reason why one should always use the same word
