The invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication. The invention provides a method for managing monitoring events. The method comprises the following steps: a network open function network element sends first information of a monitoring event to a first mobility management network element, and receives identification information of a second mobility management network elementfrom the data management network element, wherein the first mobility management network element supports intercommunication without an interface between the first network and the second network, and the first mobility management network element and the second mobility management network element serve the user equipment in the first network and the second network, respectively; and the network openfunction network element sends second information of the monitoring event to the second mobility management network element according to the identification information of the second mobility management network element. Through the scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, when the second mobility management network element does not support the intercommunication with the interface between the first mobility management network element, the network open function network element ensures that the monitoring of the monitoring event is not interrupted after the user equipment moves from the first network to the second network.
