She has also written two popular booklets. In 2003 she received a Knight Science Journalism Fellowship at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology but her education has been mainly informal through the research required for her films. Rehana is motivated to promote aware­ness in environmental issues and earth sciences and has a current focus on climate change and wetlands.
