Protesters are due to gather once more in Hong Kong, a year since the start of huge pro-democracy rallies that brought parts of the city to a standstill.
But with no concessions on political reform from authorities in Beijing and Hong Kong, campaigners, disheartened by a lack of progress, say they do not plan to start more mass demonstrations.
Monday's events are instead billed as a time for reflection as activists try to develop strategies to breathe new life into a movement which has lost momentum.

Occupy Central was launched a year ago, calling for fully free leadership elections in the semi-autonomous city, following more than a week of student protests.
Thousands joined the already large crowds after police fired tear gas in the afternoon of September 28, a move that shocked the public and galvanised the Umbrella Movement - named after the umbrellas protesters carried to shelter from sun, rain, tear gas and pepper spray.
On Monday, activists will first gather at midday at the "Lennon Wall" - an outdoor staircase near the government headquarters that was plastered with thousands of multi-coloured paper notes expressing support during the protests.
It was at the heart of the sprawling protest site in Admiralty district, where the main pro-democracy rally will take place later on Monday afternoon.
The protests began after China's central government claimed it was offering a compromise of sorts by allowing a popular vote for Hong Kong's leader in 2017 but insisted candidates were vetted.
The electoral package was voted down in June by pro-democracy legislators unhappy with the restrictions, leaving the territory with its existing system where the leader is chosen by a pro-Beijing election committee.
Hong Kong has been governed under a "one country, two systems" arrangement since it was handed back to China by Britain in 1997.
It allows far greater civil liberties than on the Chinese mainland, but there are growing fears those freedoms are being eroded.
