Born in Yaoundé, Cameroon in 1993, Awona arrived in France at the age of six. She could have chosen to play for France internationally, and was a part of the France U19 team, but instead chose to represent Cameroon at senior level.

On 28 May 2015, Awona was selected in Cameroon's 23-player squad for 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup. After not playing the first two matches she made her FIFA Women's World Cup debut on 16 June 2015 in a 2–1 win against Switzerland in the last group stage match. She also started the next match in the Round of 16 against China.

At the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, she played in 3 out of 4 games.

In 2022, Braga finished third in the league and second in the cup.
