Over three years, Iryna has been the Executive Director of the DEJURE Foundation. She was included in the ’30 Under 30′ ratings by Kyiv Post (2019) and Ukrainian Forbes (2020 and 2021) due to her contribution to the Foundation’s fight against corruption in the courts and the development of child-friendly justice.
She received legal and economic education in Ukraine. She also gained a master’s degree in Economic Analysis of Law from a joint program of three European universities (University of Bologna, Erasmus University, Rotterdam, Warsaw School of Economics).
For about three years, Iryna was the author and host of the TV show HONOR and NO. HONOR on Channel 24. In 2021, the George Gongadze Prize in partnership with the Ukrainians named Iryna on the list ’30 Under 30: Who creates the future of the Ukrainian media as a person who speaks about judges and justice with expertise, accuracy, and in a simple language.
Iryna spoke about her view on cooperation with the EUACI:
In its work, the EUACI team takes a holistic approach, strengthening all actors in the anti-corruption infrastructure – state institutions, civil society, investigative media, and local administrations. After all, only through interaction and cross-sectoral cooperation, we can achieve significant results in combating corruption. I believe that we will overcome all challenges. The main thing is to be ready for constant and systematic promotion of changes.
