Setayesh Shafiee was a 21-year-old woman who had recently embarked on her independent life after growing up in Iran's welfare system. She is remembered by those who knew her as a courageous individual whose life was cut short during a period of national unrest in Tehran. On January 8, 2026, Setayesh was at Khorasan Square when she witnessed a 16-year-old boy in danger. While heroically attempting to assist and save the teenager, she was struck by gunfire and killed. Her selfless actions in her final moments have led her to be honored as a "Javidnam," or eternal name, within the movement. As a young person who overcame the challenges of being raised in the state care system to build her own future, Setayesh’s story stands as a testament to bravery and sacrifice. She remains a symbol of the heavy toll paid by Iran's youth in their pursuit of justice.

ستایش شفیعی جوانی ۲۱ ساله بود که پس از بزرگ شدن در مراکز بهزیستی، به تازگی زندگی مستقل خود را آغاز کرده بود. او به عنوان فردی شجاع شناخته می‌شد که در جریان اعتراضات سراسری، جان خود را در راه کمک به دیگران فدا کرد. در تاریخ ۱۸ دی ۱۴۰۴، ستایش در میدان خراسان تهران حضور داشت. بر اساس گزارش‌های موجود، او در حالی که فداکارانه برای نجات جان یک نوجوان ۱۶ ساله تلاش می‌کرد، هدف شلیک گلوله قرار گرفت و جان باخت. این اقدام او در آخرین لحظات زندگی، نام او را به عنوان نمادی از ایثار و انسانیت ثبت کرد. ستایش که با وجود سختی‌های زندگی در بهزیستی توانسته بود مسیر مستقل خود را بسازد، اکنون به عنوان یکی از «جاویدنامان» راه آزادی گرامی داشته می‌شود. یاد او به عنوان نمونه‌ای از شجاعت نسل جوان ایران در حافظه جمعی باقی مانده است.
