Question

what the difference between project selection and problem definition?

Answer 1

Project Selection is a process to assess each project idea and select the project with the highest priority. Projects are still just suggestions at this stage, so the selection is often made based on only brief descriptions of the project.

A problem statement is a concise description of an issue to be addressed or a condition to be improved upon. A simple and well-defined problem statement will be used by the project team to understand the problem and work toward developing a solution.
