English term or phrase: axe de communication

Hi folks. Corporate jargon. Context: A department-wide communications plan/network to be developed & implemented. My trouble is with the use of 'axe.' To my mind it could mean 'communications areas/focal points/issues' or simply 'lines of communication.' Any feelings either way?

Quote: "En vous appuyant sur le diagnostic, définissez les axes de communication de l'entité, en cohérence avec les axes de communication du Groupe et les axes stratégiques de l'entité."
