# data[].attributes.body

Get the stu
dents to EMPATHIZE from the perspective of the client's and think of what  could be improved in the surroundings to serve the clients better?
Ask them to interview the staff and clients at the VWO to see what  could be improved in the environment for the clients to verify their observations?
