O diálogo entre as diferentes partes interessadas foi particularmente dinâmico e frutífero durante as diversas Sessões Temáticas Especiais realizadas durante a conferência. Vinte e sete Sessões Temáticas Especiais foram organizadas por ONG's, organizações da sociedade civil ou redes, universidades, governos ou organizações internacionais (FAO, FIDA, IFPRI, PNUD, Banco Mundial, etc). Onze sessões, relacionadas a temas específicos nacionais ou experiências regionais (no Brasil, Índia, África do Sul e outras regiões da África, Ásia e Pacífico, Leste Europeu, etc.) também foram realizadas. Durante outras sessões se discutiram os temas da reforma agrária e do desenvolvimento rural a partir de pontos de vista específicos: perspectiva das mulheres (2 sessões no dia 08 de março), das populações pobres rurais, povos indígenas, jovens, populações das montanhas e redes relacionadas ao tema do desenvolvimento rural. Realizaram-se, ainda, discussões a partir de temáticas diversas tais como: direito à terra, agricultura orgânica, sistemas tradicionais agrícolas, pesquisas, agricultura e desenvolvimento rural sustentável (ADRS). Uma das sessões tratou, ainda, das questões relativas aos indicadores da reforma agrária, desenvolvimento rural e mecanismos relacionados com a coleta e análise de dados.
