L’Agence intervient pour soutenir le pays dans la mise en œuvre de sa transition économique. Après avoir réussi une première phase de diversification de son économie, le pays doit aujourd’hui **faire face à un palier de son développement** et trouver de nouveaux ressorts de croissance qui rendent son économie à la fois plus robuste dans un contexte de mondialisation accrue et plus soutenable, alors que le pays dispose de ressources naturelles limitées et fragiles.

respond to a plateau in its development

IMO... So maybe "respond to the current development plateau" for "aujourd’hui faire face à un palier de son développement."

overcome a growth plateau

growth plateau is I believe is the correct economic term. i.e. after the first burst of growth the economy has reached a plateau (leveled off,) and must find new ways to stimulate growth to ensure the economy is robust enough to respond to the challenges of the global market.

cope with a hiatus/plateau in its development

"Faire face à" is to cope/deal with. One could retain the symbolism of palier by using "plateau" but, as this is not a literary text, I think that metaphor is unnecessary and the clarity of "hiatus" is to be preferred.

neutral Jocelyne Cuenin : Je crois qu'il faut voir palier comme dans une cage d'escalier, tout simplement. Tu n'es pas obligé de t'arrêter pour reprendre ton souffle, mais tu en as l'occasion.//IMO palier n'est pas automatiquement connoté de l'idée négative de marquer le pas.

The use of the term "palier" in French or "plateau" in English is used in sports training for a period when improvement stops and you just manage to keep the same level. This is also applied to economic development.
