Vadym Davydenko
Vadym Davydenko was a 17-year-old Ukrainian teenager who tragically died from stab wounds in an unregulated private emergency care placement in Dublin, just after arriving in Ireland. He had traveled from Poland to seek a better education and hoped to pursue a career in cybersecurity, motivated by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. His death has raised concerns about the safety and regulation of accommodations for vulnerable children seeking international protection in Ireland.
