The Polycrisis of Healthcare in Rural, Remote & Indigenous Communities.
Economic restraints, shortage of physicians, siloed healthcare systems and an aging population have created serious impacts on healthcare parity across rural, remote, and Indigenous communities. Communities have limited resources, and when a crisis hits, vulnerable citizens are at grave risk. Action is required immediately.
Community Designed. Humanity Grounded. Digitally Delivered.
We empower communities to steward their citizens’ health and well-being. Our Supercommunity Ecosystem engages multi-stakeholder collaboration for safe health crisis management.
Empowering Women through Volunteerism and Job Creation.
Women, as matriarchs and natural caregivers, are the last frontier in telecare adoption. Leading their Supercommunity Ecosystem development, women take the sting out of technology, guiding elderly, homebound, and tech-shy patients with comforting, inclusive digital health support during highly stressful times.
Supercommunities are more than a solution - they're a movement.
Meet Marilyn Lawrie, President, EMBA, Supercommunity ecosystem designer
I'm honoured to have found my calling: helping communities design and steward citizen health and wellbeing in times of crisis. As a passionate advocate for Women Transforming Supercommunity Ecosystems, I believe in women's power to foster connections and drive the adoption of digital healthcare. Their innate ability to build community makes them a transformative force in this space.
My journey began with early-stage internet and telehealth providers across remote regions of British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan—where I earned the nickname "Biz Shrink" from physicians whose operational challenges I helped solve. These experiences gave me a deep understanding of the impact of healthcare disparities in smaller municipalities and Indigenous communities. Overcoming the hurdles of limited internet access, cultural barriers, and the need for human-centred training was both demanding and deeply rewarding.
Today, I guide communities through their concerns about AI, privacy and digital health adoption—building trust, confidence, and a shared vision of what a collaborative ecosystem can achieve. I encourage a shift away from outdated models of care, inspiring humanized innovation and localized solutions that reflect each community’s unique wellness priorities.
