The main difference between "been" and "being" is that "been" is the past participle form of the verb "be," while "being" is the present participle form of the same verb.
1. "Been" is used to indicate completion or occurrence of an action in the past or to form the perfect tenses.
Example: She has been to Paris. (completed action in the past)
2. "Being" is used to indicate ongoing or continuous action in the present or to form the continuous tenses.
Example: She is being interviewed. (ongoing action in the present)
In short, "been" is used for past actions while "being" is used for ongoing or present actions.
