The seven themes under the PRINCE2 framework are business case, organisation, quality, plans, risk, change, and progress. Processes, on the other hand, are key stages within the project lifecycle. Processes under PRINCE2 include: directing a project starting up a project, initiating a project, managing stage boundaries, controlling a stage, managing product delivery, and closing a project.
